6.            RESULTS

Standard

The sample was tested in accordance with 47 CFR Part 15 Subpart C.

Methods and Procedures

The measurement methods and procedures as described in ANSI C63.4 - 2003 were used.

Section 15.201: Equipment authorisation requirement

Certification as detailed in Subpart J of Part 2 is required for this device.

Section 15.203: Antenna requirement

As can be seen from the attached photographs the device has an internal unique connector. The
connector type is a Hirschmann CA series part number 932-325-100 connector.

Result: Complies.

Section 15.204: External radio frequency power amplifiers and antenna modifications

From the attached photographs it can be seen that it is not possible to attach an external
power amplifier to this transmitter.

Result: Complies.

Section 15.205: Restricted bands of operation

The transmitter transmits on 134.2 kHz.

This falls between the restricted bands of 90 –110 kHz and 495 – 505 kHz.

Result: Complies.

Section 15.207: Conducted limits

Conducted emission testing has been carried out as the device using a representative 110 Vac
switch mode power supply

The device was operated transmitting continuously with correct operation being observed when
a tag is placed in the presence of the transmitter causing the reader to beep.

Testing was carried out with a small and a large panel antenna attached.

Conducted emissions testing was carried out over the frequency range of 150 kHz to 30
MHz at the Laboratory’s MacKelvie Street premises in a 2.4 m x 2.4 m x 2.4 m screened
room.

Measurements on both the phase and neutral lines were made using either a Quasi Peak or
an Average detector with a 9 kHz bandwidth.

The supplied conducted emission plot is a combined plot showing the worst case of the
Peak, Quasi Peak and Average levels for both phase and neutral.


Result: Complies with a 8.4 dB margin at 8.190 MHz (Average), when the large panel antenna
was attached.

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
- Mains terminal tests      (0.15 - 30 MHz) ± 2.2 dB

Section 15.209: Radiated emission limits, general requirements

Radiated emissions testing was carried out over the frequency range of 100 kHz to 1000
MHz.

Testing was carried out at the laboratory’s open area test site - located at Driving Creek,
Orere Point, Auckland, New Zealand.

This site conforms to the requirements of CISPR 16, Part 1, Clause 16, and ANSI C63.4 -
2003.

The device was placed in a wooden cradle on top of the turntable containing the panel antenna
and reader that positioned the reader approximately 0.8 m above the test site ground plane.

Testing below 30 MHz and above 30 MHz was carried out with a small and a larger panel
antenna attached.

When an emission is located, it is positively identified and its maximum level is found by
rotating the automated turntable, and by varying the antenna height, where appropriate,
with an automated antenna tower.

The emission is measured in both vertical and horizontal antenna polarisations, where
appropriate.

The emission level was determined in field strength by taking the following into
consideration:

Level (dBµV/m) = Receiver Reading (dBµV) + Antenna Factor (dB) + Coax Loss (dB)

Fundamental emission:

Measurements were made using a magnetic loop antenna and a receiver with an average
detector and a peak detector both using a 9 kHz bandwidth

Measurements were initially made at a distance of 10 metres then also at 30 metres.

Using these measurements a 300 metre extrapolated level has been determined as detailed in
section 15.31(f)(2) as measurements were made at two distances on the radial that was
determined to give the highest field strength.

The highest radial was determined during the pre screening of the device when it was rotated on
the test site using a turntable.

During the final test at the grass test site the device was positioned along the highest radial with
the measurement antenna being further adjusted to give the highest field strength.

The maximum field strength was found to be where the transmitting antenna was facing the
measurement antenna (see photographs at the back of this report).

Measurements were made while the device was being powered using an external 110 Vac
switch mode power supply.

The peak limit is the average limit plus 20 dB

Sample Calculation (Average detector) for the Small Antenna :
10 metre to 30 metre roll off = 23.9 dB
10 metres to 30 metres is 0.477 of a decade
30 metres to 300 metres is 1 decade.
Therefore 10 metres to 300 metres is 1.477 of a decade
10 metres to 300 metres roll off is 23.9 dB x (1.477 / 0.477) = 74.0 dB
10 metre measurement 93.8 dBuV/m – 74.0 dB = 19.8 dBuV/m at 300 metres

See photos at the end of this report for the highest field strength test set up.

Measurements were also carried out when the 110 Vac mains supply was varied by +/- 15%
(93.5 Vac to 126.5 Vac) however the observed field strength with both antennas remained the
same as the field strength observed when 110 Vac was applied.


Result: Complies with a 5.2 dB margin when measured using an average detector with the
small panel antenna attached.

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
- Free radiation tests      (100 kHz – 30 MHz) ± 4.8 dB

No other emissions detected from the transmitter that were within 20 dB of the applicable limit.

Magnetic loop measurements were made at a distance of 10 metres.

Pre screening of the device of the device was carried on the test site using a turntable which
showed that the maximum field strength of the spurious emissions was in the same radial as for
the fundamental emission.

At each frequency the measurement antenna was further adjusted to give the highest field
strength.

Measurements were made while the device was being powered using a 110 Vac switch mode
power supply.

Testing was carried out with a small and a large antenna panel attached.

A receiver with an average detector and a peak detector using a 9 kHz bandwidth was used
between 110 – 490 kHz and a quasi peak detector with a 9 kHz bandwidth was used between
490 kHz – 30.0 MHz.

The 300 metre limit between 125 – 490 kHz has been scaled by a factor of 40 dB per decade, as
per section 15.31 (f) (2) and the 30 metre limit between 490 – 1705 kHz has been scaled by a
factor of 40 dB per decade, as per section 15.31 (f) (2).

The limit between 110 – 490 kHz was increased by 20 dB when the peak detector was used.

The spurious emissions observed do not exceed the level of the fundament emission.

Result: Complies with a margin of 8.3 dB at 671 kHz when the large panel antenna is used.

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
- Free radiation tests      (100 kHz – 30 MHz) ± 4.8 dB

                                                            Report date: 12 November 2007


Section 15.209: Spurious Emissions (above 30 MHz)

Measurements between 30 –1000 MHz have been made at a distance of 3 metres.

Measurements were made while the device was being powered at 110 Vac using a
representative switch mode power supply

Testing was carried out when the transmitter was operating continuously with either the small or
large panel antennas attached.

A receiver with a quasi peak detector with a 120 kHz bandwidth was used between 30 – 1000
MHz.

Measurements were carried out as the device contains several digital devices.

Attached to the serial port of the device was a powered Ruddweigh 880 weigh scale that was
located approximately 5 metres away which was provided to load this port.

When a tag was placed in the presence of the antenna the reader was observed to beep and an
output was observed on the weigh scale.

The limits as described in Section 15.209 have been applied as follows:

30.0 – 88.0 MHz                            100 uV/m                     40 dBuV/m
88.0 – 216.0 MHz                           150 uV/m                     43.5 dBuV/m
216.9 – 960.0 MHz                          200 uV/m                     46.0 dBuV/m

Result: Complies with a 10.6 dB margin at 103.578 MHz (Horizontal) when the large panel
antenna was attached.

Measurement uncertainty with a confidence interval of 95% is:
- Free radiation tests      (30 – 1000 MHz) ± 4.1 dB
