1.0    INTRODUCTION
       EMI testing was performed on the Atheros Half Mini-PCI Wireless LAN Module (HB97
       802.11b/g/n 2x2), Model: AR5B97 installed in Fujitsu notebook PC, *Model numbers: T730 /
       TH700.

       *The model numbers shown T730 and TH700 are for the same product.
       The T730 is for commercial market (there is Port-Replicator as option).
       The TH700 is for consumer market (there is no Port-Replicator).

       The AR5B97 (HB97 802.11b/g/n 2x2) WLAN transmitter installed in the T730 / TH700 notebook
       is an Atheros Half Mini-PCI Wireless LAN Module. This module was originally certified by Atheros
       Communications as a modular approval under FCC ID: PPD-AR5B97-F (Canada ID: 4104A-
       AR5B97F).

       The other transmitter installed in the T730 / TH700 notebook is BSMAN3 CSR Bluetooth Module.
       The Bluetooth module was originally certified by CSR as a modular approval under FCC ID:
       PIWBSMAN (Canada ID: 5255A-BSMAN).

       The intention of this Class II Permissive Change application is to enable the certified AR5B97
       Atheros module to be co-located with BSMAN3 CSR Bluetooth Module in host system Fujitsu
       LifeBook T Series, Model: T730 / TH700. Independent antennas are used for each of the Radio
       modules and simultaneous transmission is possible. The transmitter modules are installed in a
       controlled environment at the Fujitsu notebook production/assembly factory.

       Test results and procedures were performed in accordance with the following Federal
       Communications Commission (FCC) standards/regulations:

       47 CFR, Part 15, Subpart C:     Rules for intentional radiators (particularly section 15.247)
       Section 15.203:                 Antenna requirements
       Section 15.205:                 Restricted bands of operation
       Section 15.207:                 Conducted Emission Limits
       Section 15.209:                 Radiated Emission Limits (General requirements)
       Section 15.247:                 Operation in the bands 902-928 MHz, 2400-2483.5 MHz,
                                       5725-5850 MHz

       The test sample complied with the requirements of 47 CFR, Part 15 Subpart C - Section 15.247.

       The test sample also complied with the Industry Canada RSS-210 issue 7 - Low Power Licence-
       Exempt Radiocommunication Devices (All Frequency Bands): Category I Equipment, Annex 8
       and the RF exposure requirements of RSS-102.

       The measurement procedure used was in accordance with ANSI C63.4-2003. The
       instrumentation conformed to the requirements of ANSI C63.2-1996.

2.5.2   NATA Accreditation
        EMC Technologies is accredited in Australia to test to the following standards by the National
        Association of Testing Authorities (NATA).

        “FCC Part 15 unintentional and intentional emitters in the frequency range 9kHz to 18 GHz
        excluding TV receivers (15.117 and 15.119), TV interface devices (15.115), cable ready
        consumer electronic equipment (15.118), cable locating equipment (15.213) and
        unlicensed national information infrastructure devices (Sub part E).”

        The current full scope of accreditation can be found on the NATA website: www.nata.asn.au
        It also includes a large number of emissions, immunity, SAR, EMR and Safety standards.

        NATA is the Australian national laboratory accreditation body and has accredited EMC
        Technologies to operate to the IEC/ISO17025 requirements.              A major requirement for
        accreditation is the assessment of the company and its personnel as being technically competent
        in testing to the standards. This requires fully documented test procedures, continued calibration
        of all equipment to the National Standard at the National Measurements Institute (NMI) and an
        internal quality system to ISO 9002. NATA has mutual recognition agreements with the National
        Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) and the American Association for
        Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA).


2.6     Test Equipment Calibration
        All measurement instrumentation and transducers were calibrated in accordance with the
        applicable standards by an independent NATA registered laboratory such as Agilent
        Technologies (Australia) Pty Ltd or the National Measurement Institute (NMI). All equipment
        calibration is traceable to Australia national standards at the National Measurements Institute.
        The reference antenna calibration was performed by NMI and the working antennas (biconical
        and log-periodic) calibrated by the EMC Technologies. The complete list of test equipment used
        for the measurements, including calibration dates and traceability is contained in Appendix A


2.7     Ambients at OATS
        The Open Area Test Site (OATS) is an area of low background ambient signals. No significant
        broadband ambients are present however commercial radio and TV signals exceed the limit in
        the FM radio, VHF and UHF television bands. Radiated prescan measurements were performed
        in the shielded enclosure to check for possible radiated emissions at the frequencies where the
        OATS ambient signals exceeded the test limit.

                                  FCC 15.247 (DTS) RESULTS

3.0    CONDUCTED EMISSION MEASUREMENTS
       Testing was performed by Fujitsu General EMC Laboratory, JAPAN accredited by NVLAP (Lab
       Code: 200373-0).


4.0    RADIATED SPURIOUS EMISSION MEASUREMENTS

4.1    Test Procedure
       Testing was performed in accordance with the requirements of FCC Part 15.247(d).

       Radiated emission measurements were performed to the limits as per section 15.209 and
       15.247. The measurements were made at the open area test site. All measurements above 1
       GHz were made over a distance of 3 and 1 metres.

       Calibrated EMCO 3115, EMCO 3116 and ETS standard gain horn antennas were used for
       measurements between 1 to 25 GHz.

       The measurement of emissions above 1000 MHz was measured using a following setting:
       Peak measurements setting: RBW = VBW = 1 MHz
       Average measurements setting: RBW = 1 MHz and VBW = 10 Hz

       The receiver bandwidth was set to 6 dB.

       The EUT was slowly rotated with the Peak Detector set to Max-Hold. This was performed for two
       antenna heights. When an emission was located, it was positively identified and its maximum
       level found by rotating the automated turntable, and by varying the antenna height. Each
       significant peak was investigated with the Peak/Average Detectors. The measurement data for
       each frequency range was corrected for cable losses, antenna factors and preamplifier gain. This
       process was performed for both horizontal and vertical antenna polarisations.



4.2    Calculation of field strength
       The field strength was calculated automatically by the software using all the pre-stored calibration
       data. The method of calculation is shown below:

        E = V + AF - G + L Where:
        E     =   Radiated Field Strength in dBµV/m.
        V     =   EMI Receiver Voltage in dBµV. (measured value)
        AF =      Antenna Factor in dB(m¯¹). (stored as a data array)
        G     =   Preamplifier Gain in dB. (stored as a data array)
        L     =   Cable loss in dB. (stored as a data array of Insertion Loss versus frequency)

       • Example Field Strength Calculation
       Assuming a receiver reading of 34.0 dBµV is obtained at 90 MHz, the Antenna Factor at that
       frequency is 9.2 dB. The cable loss is 1.9 dB while the preamplifier gain is 20 dB. The resulting
       Field Strength is therefore as follows:

                                  34.0 + 9.2 + 1.9 - 20 = 25.1 dBµV/m

4.3     Radiated Emissions (Spurious and Harmonics)
        This transmitter module was originally tested and certified by the manufacturer as a stand-
        alone module outside a laptop (host) with higher gain antennas. Refer to manufacturer’s
        original FCC 15.247 AR5B97 test report for full results showing compliance with the spurious
        and harmonics limits. However, to ensure the transmitter module install in T730 / TH700
        LifeBook is still in compliance, verification tests were performed at the worst case (frequencies
        with higher average output power) or selected frequencies for harmonics and spurious
        emissions.

        All orientations were investigated and tested. Worst results were reported below.

4.3.1   Frequency Band: 1 – 25 GHz
        The 74 dBµV/m @ 3m and 54 dBµV/m @ 3m limits are applied for emissions fall in the
        restricted bands. The limits for emission outside the restricted band are 20 dB below the
        fundamental field strength.

4.3.1.1 Configuration 802.11b
        Initial investigations were performed with all data rates: (1 Mbps to 11 Mbps). Final testing was
        performed while the transmitter continuously operated with the data rate of 1 Mbps.

        Harmonics were measured for channels where the average output power was highest.

        Result: Harmonic and spurious emissions were recorded up to 25 GHz. Other harmonics
                were confirmed low with both RBW and VBW reduced. The worst case emissions
                complied with the FCC limits of sections 15.209 and 15.247 by a margin of 0 dB.

11.0   MEASUREMENT UNCERTAINTIES
       EMC Technologies has evaluated the equipment and the methods used to perform the emissions
       testing. The estimated measurement uncertainties for emissions tests shown within this report
       are as follows:

       Conducted Emissions:                       9 kHz to 30 MHz                              ±3.2 dB

       Radiated Emissions:                        30 MHz to 300 MHz                            ±5.1 dB
                                                  300 MHz to 1000 MHz                          ±4.7 dB
                                                  1 GHz to 18 GHz                              ±4.6 dB

       The above expanded uncertainties are based on standard uncertainties multiplied by a coverage
       factor of k=2, providing a level of confidence of approximately 95%.
