2.1 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES

2.2 RF OUTPUT POWER MEASUREMENT - §2.1046

The peak conducted power was measured with a Gigatronics 8650A Universal Power Meter in burst average power mode.
An offset was entered into the power meter to correct for the losses of the attenuator and cable installed before the sensor
input. The transmitter terminal was coupled to the power meter and the EUT was placed into test mode via internal software.
All subsequent tests were performed using the same tune-up procedures.

2.3 EFFECTIVE ISOTROPIC RADIATED POWER OUTPUT - §24.232(b)

EIRP measurements were performed using the Signal Substitution Method in accordance with ANSI TIA/EIA-603-A-2001 on a
3-meter open area test site. The EUT was placed on a turntable 3-meters from the receive antenna and tested with the EUT
transmitting continuously on 4 time slots in GPRS mode via internal software at a full rated power. The field of maximum
intensity was found by rotating the EUT 360 degrees and changing the height of the receive antenna from 1 to 4 meters.
Once a peak was found the spectrum analyzer was set to peak hold and the value of the emission was extracted. The field
strength was recorded for each channel being tested, and for both EUT antenna polarizations and modes. A standard gain
horn antenna was substituted in place of the EUT. The antenna was fed through a directional coupler and the power at the
coupler port was monitored. A signal generator and power amplifier controlled the signal to the antenna, and the input level of
the antenna was adjusted to the same field strength level as the EUT. The feed point for the antenna was then connected to
a calibrated power meter and the power adjusted to read the same as the coupler port previously recorded, this is to account
for any mismatch in impedance, which may occur at the horn antenna. The conducted power at the antenna feed point was
recorded. The forward conducted power for the horn antenna was then determined and the EIRP level was determined by
adding the horn forward conducted power and the antenna gain in dB.

2.4 FIELD STRENGTH OF SPURIOUS RADIATION - §2.1053

Radiated spurious emissions were measured on a 3-meter open area test site using the Signal Substitution Method in
accordance with ANSI TIA/EIA-603-A-2001. The EUT was tested with the EUT transmitting continuously on 4 time slots in
GPRS mode via internal software at a full rated power. The EUT was placed on the turntable with the transmitter transmitting
into a non-radiating load. A receiving antenna located 3 meters from the turntable received any signal radiated from the
transmitter and its operating accessories. The receiving antenna was varied in height from 1 to 4 meters and the polarization
was varied (horizontal and vertical) to determine the worst-case emission level. A standard gain horn antenna was
substituted in place of the EUT. A modulated signal was fed through a directional coupler to the antenna and the power at the
coupler port was monitored. A signal generator and power amplifier controlled the antenna, and the input level of the antenna
was adjusted to the same field strength level as the EUT. The antenna feed point was then connected to a calibrated power
meter and the power was adjusted to read the same power at the coupler port previously recorded, to account for any
mismatch in impedance which may occur at the horn antenna. The conducted power at the antenna feed point was then
recorded. The forward conducted power for the horn antenna was determined by measuring the power at the horn antenna
feed point and reproducing the coupler power previously measured. The EIRP level was determined by adding the horn
forward conducted power and the horn antenna gain. All spurious emissions from the lowest radio frequency generated in the
equipment to the tenth harmonic of the carrier were investigated. The test data is shown on pages 7-9.
