2 Technical Requirements for DFS 2.1 Applicability of DFS Requirements 2.1.1 Applicability of DFS Requirements Prior to use of a Channel Operational Mode Requirement Client Without Client With Radar Master Radar Detection Detection Non-Occupancy Period Yes Not required Yes DFS Detection Threshold Yes Not required Yes Channel Availability Check Time Yes Not required Not required Uniform Spreading Yes Not required Not required U-NII Detection Bandwidth Yes Not required Yes 2.1.2 Applicability of DFS Requirements during Normal Operation Operational Mode Requirement Client Without Client With Radar Master Radar Detection Detection DFS Detection Threshold Yes Not required Yes Channel Closing Transmission Time Yes Yes Yes Channel Move Time Yes Yes Yes U-NII Detection Bandwidth Yes Not required Yes Report No.: FZ430402 Page : 7 of 17 Report Version: Rev. 02

2.2 DFS Detection Thresholds and Response Requirement Below table provides the DFS Detection Thresholds for Master Devices as well as Client Devices incorporating In-Service Monitoring. DFS Detection Thresholds for Master Dev ices and Client Dev ices With Radar Detection. Maximum Transmit Pow er Value (See Notes 1 and 2) ≥ 200 milliwatt -64 dBm < 200 milliwatt -62 dBm Note: 1) This is the level at the input of the receiver assuming a 0 dBi receive antenna. 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. DFS Response Requirement Values Parameter Value Non-occupancy period Minimum 30 minutes. Channel Availability Check Time 60 seconds. Channel Move Time 10 seconds. (See Note 1.) Channel Closing Transmission Time 200 milliseconds + an aggregate of 60 milliseconds over remaining 10 second period. (See Notes 1 and 2.) U-NII Detection Bandwidth Minimum 80% of the U- NII 99% transmission power bandwidth. (See Note 3.) Note: 1) The instant that the Channel Move Time and the Channel Closing Transmission Time begins is as follows: • For the Short Pulse Radar Test Signals this instant is the end of the B urst. • For the Frequency Hopping radar Test Signal, this instant is the end of the last radar Burst generated. • For the Long Pulse Radar Test Signal this instant is the end of the 12 second period defining the Radar Waveform. 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 a Channel move (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. 3) During the U-NII Detection Bandwidth detection test, radar type 1 is used and for each frequency step the minimum percentage of detection is 90 percent. Measu rements are performed with no data traffic. Report No.: FZ430402 Page : 8 of 17 Report Version: Rev. 02

2.3 Radar Test Waveforms This section provides the parameters for required test waveforms, minimum percentage of successful detections, and the minimum number of trials that must be used for determining DFS conformance. Step intervals of 0.1 microsecond for Pulse Width, 1 microsecond for PRI, 1 MHz for chirp width and 1 for the number of pulses will be utilized for the random determination of specific test waveforms. 2.3.1 Short Pulse Radar Test Waveforms Minimum Radar Pulse Width Number of Percentage of Minimum PRI (µsec) Type (µsec) Pulses Successful Number of Trials Detection 1 1 1428 18 60% 30 2 1-5 150-230 23-29 60% 30 3 6-10 200-500 16-18 60% 30 4 11-20 200-500 12-16 60% 30 Aggregate (Radar Types 1-4) 80% 120 A minimum of 30 unique waveforms are required for each of the Short Pulse Radar Types 2 through 4. For Short Pulse Radar Type 1, the same waveform is used a minimum of 30 times. If more than 30 waveforms are used for Short Pulse Radar Types 2 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. 2.3.2 Long Pulse Radar Test Waveform Minimum Pulse Number of Percentage Minimum Radar Chirp Width PRI (µsec) Pulses per Number of Width of Number of Type (MHz) Bursts (µsec) Burst Successful Trials Detection 5 50-100 5-20 1000-2000 1-3 8-20 80% 30 The parameters for this waveform are randomly chosen. Thirty unique waveforms are required for the Long Pulse Radar Type waveforms. If more than 30 waveforms are used for the Long Pulse Radar Type waveforms, then each additional waveform must also be unique and not repeated from the previous waveforms. Report No.: FZ430402 Page : 9 of 17 Report Version: Rev. 02

2.3.3 Frequency Hopping Radar Test Waveform Minimum Hopping Pulse Percentage Minimum Radar PRI (µsec) Pulses per Hopping Sequence Width of Number of Type Hop Rate (kHz) Length (µsec) Successful Trials (msec) Detection 6 1 333 9 0.333 300 70% 30 For the Frequency Hopping Radar Type, the same Burst parameters are used for each waveform. The hopping sequence is different for each waveform and a 100-length segment is selected from the hopping sequence defined by the following algorithm 2.3.4 Radar waveform generation A single R&S SMJ100A Vector Signal Generator is used for the DFS signal generation. This instrument is capable of generating all the above waveforms with Pulse Sequencer Software. The R&S Pulse Sequencer Software comes as a stand-alone PC based software with preconfigured project files for DFS. It simplifies the generation of all required waveforms and offers a one box solution Report No.: FZ430402 Page : 10 of 17 Report Version: Rev. 02

2.3.5 Verify DFS Detection Threshold levels Master DFS Threshold Lev el DFS Threshold level: -60.1 dBm at the antenna connector(-64 dBm conducted) in front of the antenna(-64 dBm e.i.r.p.) The Interference Radar Detection Threshold Level is (-64dBm) + (2.9 [dBi] ) + {1 dB}= -60.1 dBm. That had been taken into account the master output power range and antenna gain.
