Report No.: 1540304R-RFUSP01V00 3.4. Test Procedure The EUT was setup according to ANSI C63.10, 2009 and tested according to FHSS test procedure of FCC Public Notice DA 00-705 for compliance to FCC 47CFR 15.247 requirements. Measuring the frequency range below 1GHz, the EUT is placed on a turn table which is 0.8 meter above ground,when measuring the frequency range above 1GHz, the EUT is placed on a turn table which is 0.8 meter above ground. The turn table is rotated 360 degrees to determine the position of the maximum emission level. The EUT was positioned such that the distance from antenna to the EUT was 3 meters. The antenna is scanned from 1 meter to 4 meters to find out the maximum emission level. This is repeated for both horizontal and vertical polarization of the antenna. In order to find the maximum emission, all of the interface cables were manipulated according to ANSI C63.10, 2009 on radiated measurement. The resolution bandwidth below 30MHz setting on the field strength meter is 9kHz and 30MHz~1GHz is 120kHz and above 1GHz is 1MHz. Radiated emission measurements below 30MHz are made using Loop Antenna and 30MHz~1GHz are made using broadband Bilog antenna and above 1GHz are made using Horn Antennas. The measurement is divided into the Preliminary Measurement and the Final Measurement. The suspected frequencies are searched for in Preliminary Measurement with the measurement antenna kept pointed at the source of the emission both in azimuth and elevation, with the polarization of the antenna oriented for maximum response. The antenna is pointed at an angle towards the source of the emission, and the EUT is rotated in both height and polarization to maximize the measured emission. The emission is kept within the illumination area of the 3 dB bandwidth of the antenna. The worst radiated emission is measured on the Final Measurement. The measurement frequency range form 9kHz - 10th Harmonic of fundamental was investigated. 3.5. Uncertainty ± 3.9 dB above 1GHz ± 3.8 dB below 1GHz Page: 15 of 37

Test Setup RF Conducted Measurement RF Cable EUT Spectrum Analyzer SMA Connecter RF Radiated Measurement: Above 1GHz 3m FRP Dome The height of board band or Dipole Antenna was scanned from 1M to 4M. The distance between EUT antenna and turn table was 3M regards to the standard adopted. 80cm To Receiver Pre- Amplifier Page: 25 of 37

Report No.: 1540304R-RFUSP01V00 4.3. Limit In any 100 kHz bandwidth outside the frequency band in which the spread spectrum intentional radiator is operating, the radio frequency power that is produced by the intentional radiator shall be at least 20 dB below that in the 100 kHz bandwidth within the band that contains the highest level of the desired power, based on either an RF conducted or a radiated measurement. Attenuation below the general limits specified in Section 15.209(a) is not required. In addition, radiated emissions which fall in the restricted bands, as defined in Section 15.205(a), must also comply with the radiated emission limits specified in Section 15.209(a) (see Section 15.205(c)). 4.4. Test Procedure Measuring the frequency range below 1GHz, the EUT is placed on a turn table which is 0.8 meter above ground,when measuring the frequency range above 1GHz, the EUT is placed on a turn table which is 0.8 meter above ground. The turn table is rotated 360 degrees to determine the position of the maximum emission level. The EUT was positioned such that the distance from antenna to the EUT was 3 meters. The antenna can move up and down between 1 meter and 4 meters to find out the maximum emission level. Both horizontal and vertical polarization of the antenna are set on measurement. In order to find the maximum emission, all of the interface cables must be manipulated according to ANSI C63.10: 2009 on radiated measurement. The bandwidth below 1GHz setting on the field strength meter is 120 kHz, above 1GHz are 1 MHz. The EUT was setup to ANSI C63.10: 2009; tested to FHSS test procedure of FCC Public Notice DA 00-705 for compliance to FCC 47CFR 15.247 requirements. 4.5.
