General Product Information

Product Function and Intended Use

The equipment under test (EUT) is a transmitter for a weather station operating at 433.92 MHz. The EUT senses
the temperature and humidity level and then transmit this information to the associated weather station.

A transmitter transmits signal for every 30.24 seconds, and the signal on period is about 0.143s. It activated
automatically shall cease transmission within 5 seconds after activation.

 THR138, THR138R                     Water Resistant Remote Sensor with LCD Display
 THN138, THN138R                     Water Resistant Remote Sensor
The models THN138, THN138R are identical in construction including PCB layout to the model THR138R, except
the change in housing design and removed LCD display.

For those models with suffix “R”, they are re-engineering models and are used for internal reference only. They are
totally identical to the models without suffix “R”.

For the above multiple models, due to the model THR138R is the most complex and integrated, the model
THR138R was chosen as a representative model for testing.


Circuit Description
THR138R is a remote thermometer sensor and transmit data by using 433.92MHz. After every time of thermometer
measurement, the data will be transfer to the receiver unit through 433.92MHz. It composes of a controller part and
a transmitter part. The transmitter is basically a Colippttis oscillator, where C5, C6 and Y1 are used to determinate
the resonant frequency that is 433.92MHz. Transistor Q3 whose fT is greater than 6GHz, provides a good
frequency response to the circuit. There is a filtering circuitry, use L1, that is used to suppress harmonics of the
oscillator. Capacitance C12, C13, C14 are employed to match the impedance of the antenna.

Test Set-up and Operation Mode

Principle of Configuration Selection

Emission:       The equipment under test (EUT) was configured to measure its highest possible radiation level.
                The test modes were adapted accordingly in reference to the instructions for use.


Test Operation and Test Software

Test operation should refer to test methodology.

    -   There was no special software to exercise the device.

    -   none


Countermeasures to achieve EMC Compliance

The test sample, which has been tested, contained the noise suppression parts as described in the Circuit Diagram
or the Technical Construction File. No additional measures were employed to achieve compliance.




Test Report No.: 14011260 001             Date: 14.11.2005                                    Page 7 of 13

Test Methodology


Radiated Emission

The radiated emission measurements were performed according to the procedures in
ANSI C63.4-2003.

The equipment under test (EUT) was placed at the middle of the 80 cm height turntable, and the turntable is 3
meters far from the measuring antenna. During the testing, the EUT was operated standalone and arranged for
maximum emissions. The EUT was tested in three orthogonal planes.

The investigation is performed with the EUT rotated 360゚, the antenna height scanned between 1m and 4m, and
the antenna rotated to repeat the measurements for both the horizontal and vertical antenna polarizations. Repeat
the measurement steps until the maximum emissions were obtained.

All radiated tests were performed at an antenna to EUT with 3 meters distance, unless stated otherwise in section
7.1.1 and 7.1.2 of this test report.




Field Strength Calculation

The field strength at 3 m was established by adding the meter reading of the spectrum analyzer to the factors
associated with antenna correction factor, cable loss, preamplifiers and filter attenuation.

The equation is expressed as follow:

FS = R + AF + CF + FA – PA

System Factor = CF + FA – PA.

Where FS = Peak Value of Field Strength in dBuV/m at 3 meters.
      R = Peak Reading of Spectrum Analyzer in dBuV.
      AF = Antenna Factor in dB.
      CF = Cable Attenuation Factor in dB.
      FA = Filter Attenuation Factor in dB.
      PA = Preamplifier Factor in dB.

FA and PA are only be used for the measuring frequency above 1 GHz.

Average value of FS = FS –Average factor.

Average Factor = 20 log duty cycle.

RESULT:                                                                                              Pass

A transmitter transmits signal for every 30.24 seconds automatically, and every signal duration is about 0.143s.
Hence it meets the requirement that the transmitter shall cease transmission within 5 seconds after activation.

The emission limits shown in the above table are based on measurements employing a CISPR quasi-peak
detector and above 1000 MHz are based on the measurements employing an average detector.

 Test Specification       :     FCC Part 15 section 15.231(c)
 Port of Testing          :     Coupling
 Detector Function        :     Peak
 Supply Voltage           :     DC 3.0V

Refer to the data graph, the 20dB points at lower edge and at higher edge are 9.2KHz and 7.4KHz respectively
apart from the centre modulated carrier, the bandwidth of the emission is 0.004 % of the centre frequency.
Therefore, the EUT meets the requirement of section 15.231(c).

For test results refer to Appendix 1, page 2.

The bandwidth of the emission shall be no wider than 0.25% if the center frequency for devices operating above
70MHz and below 900MHz.
