                         Parameter                                                Value
                 Non-occupancy period                 Minimum 30 minutes
            Channel Availability Check Time           60 seconds
                   Channel Move Time                  10 seconds (Note 1).
                                                      200 milliseconds + an aggregate of 60 milliseconds over
          Channel Closing Transmission Time
                                                      remaining 10 second periods. (Notes 1 and 2).
               U-NII Detection Bandwidth              Minimum 100% of the 99% power bandwidth (Note 3).
    Note 1: Channel Move Time and the Channel Closing Transmission Time should be performed with Radar
            Type 0. The measurement timing begins at the end of the Radar Type 0 burst.
    Note 2: The Channel Closing Transmission Time is comprised of 200 milliseconds starting at the beginning
            of the Channel Move Time plus any additional intermittent control signals required to facilitate
            Channel changes (an aggregate of 60 milliseconds) during the remainder of the 10 second period.
            The aggregate duration of control signals will not count quiet periods in between transmissions.
    Note 3: During the U-NII Detection Bandwidth detection test, radar type 0 is used and for each frequency
            step the minimum percentage of detection is 90%. Measurements are performed with no data traffic.

    Note 1: This is the level at the input of the receiver assuming a 0 dBi receive antenna.
    Note 2: Throughout these test procedures an additional 1 dB has been added to the amplitude of the test
            transmission waveforms to account for variations in measurement equipment. This will ensure that
            the test signal is at or above the detection threshold level to trigger a DFS response.
    Note3: EIRP is based on the highest antenna gain. For MIMO devices refer to KDB Publication 662911.

   Note 1: Short Pulse Radar Type 0 should be used for the detection bandwidth test, channel move time, and
   channel closing time tests.
A minimum of 30 unique waveforms are required for each of the short pulse radar types 1 through 4. If more than
30 waveforms are used for short pulse radar types 1 through 4, then each additional waveform must also be
unique and not repeated from the previous waveforms. The aggregate is the average of the percentage of
successful detections of short pulse radar types 1-4.

Each waveform is defined as follows:
   The transmission period for the Long Pulse Radar test signal is 12 seconds.
   There are a total of 8 to 20 Bursts in the 12 second period, with the number of Bursts being randomly chosen.
     This number is Burst Count.
   Each Burst consists of 1 to 3 pulses, with the number of pulses being randomly chosen. Each Burst within
     the 12 second sequence may have a different number of pulses.
   The pulse width is between 50 and 100 microseconds, with the pulse width being randomly chosen. Each
     pulse within a Burst will have the same pulse width. Pulses in different Bursts may have different pulse
     widths.
   Each pulse has a linear FM chirp between 5 and 20 MHz, with the chirp width being randomly chosen. Each
     pulse within a transmission period will have the same chirp width. The chirp is centered on the pulse. For
     example, with a radar frequency of 5300 MHz and a 20 MHz chirped signal, the chirp starts at 5290 MHz and

       If more than one pulse is present in a Burst, the time between the pulses will be between 1000 and 2000
        microseconds, with the time being randomly chosen. If three pulses are present in a Burst, the time between
        the first and second pulses is chosen independently of the time between the second and third pulses.
       The 12 second transmission period is divided into even intervals. The number of intervals is equal to Burst
        Count. Each interval is of length (12,000,000 / Burst Count) microseconds. Each interval contains one Burst.
        The start time for the Burst, relative to the beginning of the interval, is between 1 and [(12,000,000 / Burst
        Count) – (Total Burst Length) + (One Random PRI Interval)] microseconds, with the start time being
        randomly chosen. The step interval for the start time is 1 microsecond. The start time for each Burst is
        chosen independently.

    The FCC Type 6 waveform uses a static waveform with 100 bursts in the instruments ARB. In addition, the RF
    list mode is operated with a list containing 100 frequencies from a randomly generated list and it had be ensured
    that at least one of the random frequencies falls into the UNII Detection Bandwidth of the DUT. Each burst from
    the waveform file initiates a trigger pulse at the beginning that switches the RF list from one item to the next one.

3.3.3     Test Procedures
                                                    Test Method
        Verified during In-Service Monitoring; Channel Closing Transmission Time, Channel Move Time. Client
        Device will associate with the EUT. Observe the transmissions of the EUT at the end of the radar Burst
        on the Operating Channel for duration greater than 10 seconds. Measure and record the transmissions
        from the EUT during the observation time (Channel Move Time). Compare the Channel Move Time and
        Channel Closing Transmission Time limits.
        Verified during In-Service Monitoring; Channel Closing Transmission Time, Channel Move Time. One
        12 sec plot needs to be reported for the Short Pulse Radar Types 0. And zoom-in a 60 ms plot verified
        channel closing time for the aggregate transmission time starting from 200ms after the end of the radar
        signal to the completion of the channel move.
        Verified during In-Service Monitoring; Non-Occupancy Period. Client Device will associate with the EUT.
        Observe the transmissions of the EUT at the end of the radar Burst on the Operating Channel for
        duration greater than 10 seconds. Measure and record the transmissions from the EUT during the
        observation time (Non-Occupancy Period). Compare the Non-Occupancy Period limits.

  Note: The Channel Closing Transmission Time is comprised of 200 milliseconds starting at the beginning of the
        Channel Move Time plus any additional intermittent control signals required to facilitate a Channel move
        (an aggregate of 60 milliseconds) during the remainder of the 10 seconds period. The aggregate duration of
        control signals will not count quiet periods in between transmissions.
