1.5   Objective

This report is prepared on behalf of Trimble Navigation in accordance with the Part 2 and Part 90 rules of the
Federal Communication Commissions rules.

The objective of the manufacturer is to determine compliance with FCC rules spurious radiated emissions.

The objective of the manufacturer is to demonstrate compliance with the applicable FCC rules. The EUT has
integrated into its design one UHF radio, and one FHSS radio module already tested for compliance and
submitted to the FCC under FCC ID’s KEATNL450I, and Q2331308 respectively; thus, the testing in this
report concerns the compilation of these modules along with a GPS receiver into the device designated as
FCC ID: JUP-642356X-B1. Only those tests affected by this assemblage (bold face type blow) are herein
conducted and recorded; for all other test results please see those submission and reports mentioned in the
following subsection.

Trimble Navigation Ltd.                                                           FCC ID: JUP-642356X-B1

1.6   Related Submittal(s)/Grant(s)

Please refer to FCC submissions FCC ID: KEATNL450I (BACL project number R0604242), and FCC ID:
Q2331308 (BACL project number R0702082) for measurements and test results pertaining to the 450 MHz
UHF radio and Bluetooth radio modules. Also, please refer to BACL report R0710171-247 for testing and

1.7   Test Methodology

All tests and measurements indicated in this document were performed in accordance with the Code of
Federal Regulations Title 47 Part 2, Sub-part J as well as the following individual parts:

Part 90 – Private Land Mobile Radio Service

Applicable Standards: TIA/EIA-603-C, ANSI 63.4-2003, American National Standard for Methods of
Measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the range
of 9 kHz to 40 GHz.

All radiated and conducted emissions measurement was performed at Bay Area Compliance Laboratory,
Corp. The radiated testing was performed at an antenna-to-EUT distance of 3 meters.


1.8   Measurement Uncertainty

All measurements involve certain levels of uncertainties, especially in field of EMC. The factors contributing
to uncertainties are spectrum analyzer, cable loss, antenna factor calibration, antenna directivity, antenna
factor variation with height, antenna phase center variation, antenna factor frequency interpolation,
measurement distance variation, site imperfections, mismatch (average), and system repeatability.

Based on NIS 81, The Treatment of Uncertainty in EMC Measurements, the values range from +2.0 for
Conducted Emissions tests and +4.0 dB for Radiated Emissions tests are the most accurate estimates
pertaining to uncertainty of EMC measurements at BACL.

Detailed instrumentation measurement uncertainties can be found in BACL report QAP-018.


1.9   Test Facility

The test site used by BACL Corp. to collect radiated and conducted emissions measurement data is located at
its facility in Sunnyvale, California, USA.

The test sites at BACL have been fully described in reports submitted to the Federal Communication
Commission (FCC) and Voluntary Control Council for Interference (VCCI). The details of these reports has
been found to be in compliance with the requirements of Section 2.948 of the FCC Rules on February 11 and
December 10, 1997 and Article 8 of the VCCI regulations on December 25, 1997. The facility also complies
with the radiated and AC line conducted test site criteria set forth in ANSI C63.4-2003.

The Federal Communications Commission, Industry Canada, and Voluntary Control Council for Interference
has the reports on file and is listed under FCC registration number: 90464, IC registration number: 3062A,
and VCCI Registration Number: C-2463 and R-2698. The test site has been approved by the FCC, IC, and
VCCI for public use and is listed in the FCC Public Access Link (PAL) database.

During the conducted emissions tests, the EUT was searching for GPS satellites, and the 450 MHz radio was
in receive mode. The Bluetooth radio was in listen mode. The EUT was continuously communicating with the
laptop over the RS-232 connection. During the radiated emissions tests, the radio being tested was
continuously transmitting in CW mode on the selected channel.


2.3     Equipment Modifications

No modifications to the EUT were made.

4.1   Applicable Standard

§2.1053 and §90.210


4.2   Test Procedure

The transmitter was placed on a wooden turntable, and it was transmitting into a non-radiating load which
was also placed on the turntable.

The measurement antenna was placed at a distance of 3 meters from the EUT. During the tests, the antenna
height and polarization as well as EUT azimuth were varied in order to identify the maximum level of
emissions from the EUT. The test was performed by placing the EUT on 3-orthogonal axis.

The frequency range up to tenth harmonic of the fundamental frequency was investigated.

Remove the EUT and replace it with substitution antenna. A signal generator was connected to the
substitution antenna by a non-radiating cable. The absolute levels of the spurious emissions were measured by
the substitution.

Spurious emissions in dB = 10 lg (TXpwr in Watts/0.001) – the absolute level

Spurious attenuation limit in dB = 43 + 10 Log10 (power out in Watts) for EUT with a 25 KHz channel
bandwidth.

Spurious attenuation limit in dB = 50 + 10 Log10 (power out in Watts) for EUT with a 12.5 KHz channel
bandwidth.


4.3   Test Setup

The test setup used was that of TIA/EIA-603-C, ANSI 63.4-2003, American National Standard for Methods
of Measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the
range of 9 kHz to 40 GHz.
