1.0   General Description

1.1   Product Description

      The equipment under test (EUT) is a transmitter for a RC airplane operating at 27.145
      MHz which is controlled by a crystal. The EUT is powered by 6 AA batteries. The EUT
      has a power and charge switch, a control trigger and a charging cable. After switched
      ON the EUT, the control trigger is used to control the RC airplane flying in different
      speed. To charge the internal battery in the corresponding receiver (airplane), plug the
      charging cable into the charge port on the receiver and slide the power and charge
      switch on the transmitter to “charge” position.


      The brief circuit description is saved with filename : descri.pdf


1.2   Related Submittal(s) Grants

      The receiver for this transmitter is exempted from the Part 15 technical rules per
      15.101(b).

1.3   Test Methodology

      The radiated emission measurements were performed according to the procedures in
      ANSI C63.4 (2003). All measurements were performed in Open Area Test Sites.
      Preliminary scans were performed in the Open Area Test Sites only to determine worst
      case modes. All Radiated tests were performed at an antenna to EUT distance of 3
      meters, unless stated otherwise in the "Justification Section" of this Application.

1.4   Test Facility

      The open area test site and conducted measurement facility used to collect the emission
      data is located at Garment Centre, 576 Castle Peak Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong. This
      test facility and site measurement data have been fully placed on file with the FCC.

2.0   System Test Configuration

2.1   Justification

      The system was configured for testing in a typical fashion (as a customer would normally
      use it), and in the confines as outlined in ANSI C63.4 (2003).

      The EUT was powered by 6 new AA batteries during test.

      For maximizing emissions below 30 MHz, the EUT was rotated through 360°, the centre
      of the loop antenna was placed 1 meter above the ground, and the antenna polarization
      was changed. For maximizing emission at and above 30 MHz, the EUT was rotated
      through 360°, the antenna height was varied from 1 meter to 4 meters above the ground
      plane, and the antenna polarization was changed. This step by step procedure for
      maximizing emissions led to the data report in Exhibit 3.0.

      The unit was operated standalone and placed in the center of the turntable.

      The equipment under test (EUT) was configured for testing in a typical fashion (as a
      customer would normally use it). The EUT was placed on a turn table, which enabled the
      engineer to maximize emissions through its placement in the three orthogonal axes.

      For simplicity of testing, the unit was wired to transmit continuously.


2.2   EUT Exercising Software

      There was no special software to exercise the device.


2.3   Special Accessories

      There are no special accessories necessary for compliance of this product.

3.1   Field Strength Calculation

      The field strength is calculated by adding the reading on the Spectrum Analyzer to the
      factors associated with preamplifiers (if any), antennas, cables, pulse desensitization and
      average factors (when specified limit is in average and measurements are made with
      peak detectors). A sample calculation is included below.

      FS = RA + AF + CF - AG + PD + AV

      where FS = Field Strength in dBμV/m
                  RA = Receiver Amplitude (including preamplifier) in dBμV
                  CF = Cable Attenuation Factor in dB
                  AF = Antenna Factor in dB
                  AG = Amplifier Gain in dB
                  PD = Pulse Desensitization in dB
                  AV = Average Factor in -dB



      In the radiated emission table which follows, the reading shown on the data table may
      reflect the preamplifier gain. An example of the calculations, where the reading does not
      reflect the preamplifier gain, follows:


      FS = RA + AF + CF - AG + PD + AV

                        INTERTEK TESTING SERVICES


3.1   Field Strength Calculation (cont’d)

      Example
      Assume a receiver reading of 62.0 dBμV is obtained. The antenna factor of 7.4 dB and
      cable factor of 1.6 dB is added. The amplifier gain of 29 dB is subtracted. The pulse
      desensitization factor of the spectrum analyzer was 0 dB, and the resultant average
      factor was -10 dB. The net field strength for comparison to the appropriate emission limit
      is 32 dBμV/m. This value in dBμV/m was converted to its corresponding level in μV/m.

      RA = 62.0 dBμV
      AF = 7.4 dB
      CF = 1.6 dB
      AG = 29.0 dB
      PD = 0 dB

      AV = -10 dB

      FS = 62 + 7.4 + 1.6 - 29 + 0 + (-10) = 32 dBμV/m

      Level in µV/m = Common Antilogarithm [(32 dBμV/m)/20] = 39.8 μV/m

 Notes: 1. Peak Detector Data unless otherwise stated.
         2. All measurements were made at 3 meter. Harmonic emissions not detected at the 3
            meter distance were measured at 0.3 meter and an inverse proportional extrapolation
            was performed to compare the signal level to the 3 meter limit. No other harmonic
            emissions than those reported were detected at a test distance of 0.3 meter.
         3. Negative value in the margin column shows emission below limit.
         4. Loop antenna is used for the emissions below 30 MHz.
         5. Horn antenna is used for the emissions over 1000MHz.
         *Emission within the restricted band meets the requirement of part 15.205. The
          corresponding limit as per 15.209 is based on Quasi peak detector data for
          frequencies below 1000 MHz and peak detector data with average factor
          for frequencies over 1000 MHz.

8.2   Discussion of Pulse Desensitization

      The determination of pulse desensitivity was made in accordance with Hewlett
      Packard Application Note 150-2, Spectrum Analysis ... Pulsed RF.

      The effective period (Teff) was approximately 525 µs for a digital "1" bit, as shown in
      the plots of Exhibit 8.3. With a resolution bandwidth (3 dB) of 100 kHz, the pulse
      desensitivity factor was 0 dB.

8.3   Calculation of Average Factor
      (Worst-case: To control the RC plane flying in maximum speed)

      Averaging factor in dB = 20 log (duty cycle)

      The specification for output field strengths in accordance with the FCC rules specify
      measurements with an average detector. During testing, a spectrum analyzer
      incorporating a peak detector was used. Therefore, a reduction factor can be
      applied to the resultant peak signal level and compared to the limit for
      measurement instrumentation incorporating an average detector.

      The time period over which the duty cycle is measured is 100 milliseconds, or the
      repetition cycle, whichever is a shorter time frame. The worst case (highest
      percentage on) duty cycle is used for the calculation. The duty cycle is measured
      by placing the spectrum analyzer in zero scan (receiver mode) and linear mode at
      maximum bandwidth (3 MHz at 3 dB down) and viewing the resulting time domain
      signal output from the analyzer on a Tektronix oscilloscope. The oscilloscope is
      used because of its superior time base and triggering facilities.

      A plot of the worst-case duty cycle as detected in this manner are saved with
      filename: af.pdf

      The duty cycle is simply the on-time divided by the period:

      The duration of one cycle = 100 ms
      Effective period of the cycle = 1 x 4.725 ms + 9 x 1.575 ms +
                                      5 x 1.225 ms + 4 x 525 µs
                                    = 27.125 ms

      DC = 27.125 ms / 100 ms = 0.27125 or 27.125%


      Therefore, the averaging factor is found by 20 log10 0.27125 = -11.3 dB

8.4   Emissions Test Procedures

      The following is a description of the test procedure used by Intertek Testing
      Services in the measurements of transmitters operating under Part 15, Subpart C
      rules.

      The test set-up and procedures described below are designed to meet the
      requirements of ANSI C63.4 - 2003.

      The transmitting equipment under test (EUT) is placed on a wooden turntable
      which is four feet in diameter and approximately one meter in height above the
      ground plane. During the radiated emissions test, the turntable is rotated and any
      cables leaving the EUT are manipulated to find the configuration resulting in
      maximum emissions. The antenna height and polarization are varied during the
      testing to search for maximum signal levels.

      Detector function for radiated emissions is in peak mode. Average readings, when
      required, are taken by measuring the duty cycle of the equipment under test and
      subtracting the corresponding amount in dB from the measured peak readings. A
      detailed description for the calculation of the average factor can be found in Exhibit
      8.3.

      The frequency range scanned is from the lowest radio frequency signal generated
      in the device which is greater than 9 kHz to the tenth harmonic of the highest
      fundamental frequency or 40 GHz, whichever is lower. For line conducted
      emissions, the range scanned is 150 kHz to 30 MHz.




FCC ID: PQN44210TX27
                                                                                         28


                        INTERTEK TESTING SERVICES

8.4   Emissions Test Procedures (cont'd)


      The EUT is warmed up for 15 minutes prior to the test.

      AC power to the unit is varied from 85% to 115% nominal and variation in the
      fundamental emission field strength is recorded. If battery powered, a new, fully
      charged battery is used.

      Conducted measurements are made as described in ANSI C63.4 - 2003.

      The IF bandwidth used for measurement of radiated signal strength was 10 kHz for
      emission below 30 MHz and 120 kHz for emission from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz.
      Where pulsed transmissions of short enough pulse duration warrant, a greater
      bandwidth is selected according to the recommendations of Hewlett Packard
      Application Note 150-2. A discussion of whether pulse desensitivity is applicable to
      this unit is included in this report (See Exhibit 8.2). Above 1000 MHz, a resolution
      bandwidth of 1 MHz is used.

      Transmitter measurements are normally conducted at a measurement distance of
      three meters. However, to assure low enough noise floor in the restricted bands
      and above 1 GHz, signals are acquired at a distance of one meter or less. All
      measurements are extrapolated to three meters using inverse scaling, but those
      measurements taken at a closer distance are so marked.

      When determining the test result, the Measurement Uncertainty of the test has
      been considered.
