* The modulation and bandwidth are similar for 802.11n mode for 20MHz/40MHz and 802.11ac mode for
  20MHz/40MHz, therefore investigated worst case to representative mode in test report. (Final test mode

specified as below table. Other emissions shall be at least 30dB below the highest level of the desired
power:

Note:
1. The lower limit shall apply at the transition frequencies.
2. Emission level (dBuV/m) = 20 log Emission level (uV/m).
3. For frequencies above 1000MHz, the field strength limits are based on average detector, however, the
   peak field strength of any emission shall not exceed the maximum permitted average limits, specified
   above by more than 20dB under any condition of modulation.

4.1.3   Test Procedures
For Radiated emission below 30MHz
a.   The EUT was placed on the top of a rotating table 0.8 meters above the ground at a 3 meter chamber
     room. The table was rotated 360 degrees to determine the position of the highest radiation.
b.   The EUT was set 3 meters away from the interference-receiving antenna, which was mounted on the top
     of a variable-height antenna tower.
c.   Parallel, perpendicular, and ground-parallel orientations of the antenna are set to make the
     measurement.
d.   For each suspected emission, the EUT was arranged to its worst case and the rotatable table was turned
     from 0 degrees to 360 degrees to find the maximum reading.
e.   The test-receiver system was set to Quasi-Peak Detect Function and Specified Bandwidth with Maximum
     Hold Mode.
Note:
1.   The resolution bandwidth and video bandwidth of test receiver/spectrum analyzer is 9kHz at frequency
     below 30MHz.

For Radiated emission above 30MHz
a.   The EUT was placed on the top of a rotating table 0.8 meters (for 30MHz ~ 1GHz) / 1.5 meters (for above
     1GHz) above the ground at 3 meter chamber room for test. The table was rotated 360 degrees to
     determine the position of the highest radiation.
b.   The EUT was set 3 meters away from the interference-receiving antenna, which was mounted on the top
     of a variable-height antenna tower.
c.   The height of antenna is varied from one meter to four meters above the ground to determine the
     maximum value of the field strength. Both horizontal and vertical polarizations of the antenna are set to
     make the measurement.
d.   For each suspected emission, the EUT was arranged to its worst case and then the antenna was tuned
     to heights from 1 meter to 4 meters and the rotatable table was turned from 0 degrees to 360 degrees to
     find the maximum reading.
e.   The test-receiver system was set to quasi-peak detect function and specified bandwidth with maximum
     hold mode when the test frequency is below 1 GHz.
f.   The test-receiver system was set to peak and average detect function and specified bandwidth with
     maximum hold mode when the test frequency is above 1 GHz. If the peak reading value also meets
     average limit, measurement with the average detector is unnecessary.
Note:
1.   The resolution bandwidth and video bandwidth of test receiver/spectrum analyzer is 120kHz for
     Quasi-peak detection (QP) at frequency below 1GHz.
2.   The resolution bandwidth of test receiver/spectrum analyzer is 1 MHz and the video bandwidth is 3 MHz
     for Peak detection (PK) at frequency above 1GHz.
3.   The resolution bandwidth of test receiver/spectrum analyzer is 1MHz and the video bandwidth is ≥ 1/T
     (Duty cycle < 98%) or 10Hz (Duty cycle ≥ 98%) for Average detection (AV) at frequency above 1GHz.
4.   All modes of operation were investigated and the worst-case emissions are reported.
