General: Per FCC Part 15 Subpart B Section 15.109 and Subpart C Sections 15.209, 15.231. ’ Initial scans were made using a peak detector but still using the appropriate ANSI IF bandwidth. ’ A tolerance limit was set 10 dB below the specification limit. Levels above the tolerance limit were retested using the Peak detector. 3.4.2. Preliminary radiated emission tests: Preliminary investigation was performed up to ten harmonic of carrier frequency. Test was conducted in a semi-anechoic chamber at distance 3 meters. The EUT was setup in its typical configuration and operated in its various modes. For each mode of operation the frequency spectrum was monitored. EUT configuration, cable configuration and mode of operation, which produced the maximum level of emission, were documented. A list of frequencies to be tested was prepared. 3.4.3. Final measurements: The final radiated emission measurements were performed at the Open Area Test Site at the same (3 m) test distance. Test was started with a new fresh battery. Measured voltage was 3.6V The EUT was operated as described above. The EUT was installed on a turn - table. Biconilog and Double Ridged Guide antennas were used. The measurements were performed at each frequency that founded previously at which the signal level was 10 dB below the limit or less. The levels were maximized by rotating through three orthogonal axes, rotating turntable through 360° and changing antenna-to-EUT polarization from vertical to horizontal. The worse case result was noted in tables. 3.4.4. Radiated emission test results: Test result in receive mode were found below SA noise floor and at least 15 dB under the section 15.109 specified limit. For plot result in receive mode refer to plots #10 and #11. Final result measurements in transmit mode are presented in tables and plots#1 - #9 in section 2.6.5.
