4. SAR Measurement System & Test Equipment
4.1.    SAR Measurement System
The DASY5 system used for performing compliance tests consists of the following items:




•   A standard high precision 6-axis robot with controller, teach pendant and software. An arm extension for
    accommodating the data acquisition electronics (DAE).
•   An isotropic Field probe optimized and calibrated for the targeted measurement.
•   A data acquisition electronics (DAE) which performs the signal amplification, signal multiplexing, AD-
    conversion, offset measurements, mechanical surface detection, collision detection, etc. The unit is battery
    powered with standard or rechargeable batteries. The signal is optically transmitted to the EOC.
•   The Electro-optical converter (EOC) performs the conversion from optical to electrical signals for the digital
    communication to the DAE. To use optical surface detection, a special version of the EOC is required. The
    EOC signal is transmitted to the measurement server.
•   The function of the measurement server is to perform the time critical tasks such as signal filtering, control of
    the robot operation and fast movement interrupts.
•   The Light Beam used is for probe alignment. This improves the (absolute) accuracy of the probe positioning.
•   A computer running WinXP or Win7 and the DASY5 software.
•   Remote control and teach pendant as well as additional circuitry for robot safety such as warning lamps, etc.
•   The phantom, the device holder and other accessories according to the targeted measurement.

Report No.: 12371499-S1V1                                                                        Issue Date: 8/6/2018

4.2. SAR Scan Procedures
Step 1: Power Reference Measurement
The Power Reference Measurement and Power Drift Measurements are for monitoring the power drift of the device
under test in the batch process. The minimum distance of probe sensors to surface determines the closest
measurement point to phantom surface. The minimum distance of probe sensors to surface is 2.1 mm. This distance
cannot be smaller than the distance of sensor calibration points to probe tip as defined in the probe properties.

Step 2: Area Scan
The Area Scan is used as a fast scan in two dimensions to find the area of high field values, before doing a fine
measurement around the hot spot. The sophisticated interpolation routines implemented in DASY software can find
the maximum locations even in relatively coarse grids. When an Area Scan has measured all reachable points, it
computes the field maximal found in the scanned area, within a range of the global maximum. The range (in dB) is
specified in the standards for compliance testing. For example, a 2 dB range is required in IEEE Standard 1528 and
IEC 62209 standards, whereby 3 dB is a requirement when compliance is assessed in accordance with the ARIB
standard (Japan). If only one Zoom Scan follows the Area Scan, then only the absolute maximum will be taken as
reference. For cases where multiple maximums are detected, the number of Zoom Scans has to be increased
accordingly.

Step 3: Zoom Scan
Zoom Scans are used to assess the peak spatial SAR values within a cubic averaging volume containing 1 g and 10
g of simulated tissue. The Zoom Scan measures points (refer to table below) within a cube whose base faces are
centered on the maxima found in a preceding area scan job within the same procedure. When the measurement is
done, the Zoom Scan evaluates the averaged SAR for 1 g and 10 g and displays these values next to the job’s label.

Step 4: Power drift measurement
The Power Drift Measurement measures the field at the same location as the most recent power reference
measurement within the same procedure, and with the same settings. The Power Drift Measurement gives the field
difference in dB from the reading conducted within the last Power Reference Measurement. This allows a user to
monitor the power drift of the device under test within a batch process. The measurement procedure is the same as
Step 1.

Step 5: Z-Scan (FCC only)
The Z Scan measures points along a vertical straight line. The line runs along the Z-axis of a one-dimensional grid.
In order to get a reasonable extrapolation the extrapolated distance should not be larger than the step size in Z-
direction.

Notes:
1.    LTE band 41 test channels in accordance with October 2014 TCB workshop for all channels bandwidths. This band was tested using
      Uplink-Downlink Configuration 0 at 63.3% duty cycle and Special Subframe 7.
2.    LTE QPSK configuration has the highest maximum average output power per 3GPP standard.
3.    SAR Testing for LTE was performed with the same number of RB and RB offsets transmitting on all TTI frames (maximum TTI).

6.4. LTE (TDD) Considerations
According to KDB 941225 D05 SAR for LTE Devices, for Time-Division Duplex (TDD) systems, SAR must be
tested using a fixed periodic duty factor according to the highest transmission duty factor implemented for the
device and supported by the defined 3GPP LTE TDD configurations.

LTE TDD Bands support 3GPP TS 36.211 section 4.2 for Type 2 Frame Structure and Table 4.2-2 for uplink-
downlink configurations and Table 4.2-1 for Special subframe configurations.

Calculated Duty Cycle = Extended cyclic prefix in uplink x (Ts) x # of S + # of U

Example for Calculated Duty Cycle for Uplink-Downlink Configuration 0:
Calculated Duty Cycle = 5120 x [1/(15000 x 2048)] x 2 + 6 ms = 63.33%
where
Ts = 1/(15000 x 2048) seconds

Note(s):
This device supports uplink-downlink configurations 0-6. The configuration with highest duty cycle was used for
SAR Testing: Uplink-Downlink Configuration 0 at 63.3% duty cycle and Special Subframe 7.

Notes:
1.      SAR is not required because the distance from the antenna to the edge is > 25 mm as per KDB 941225 D06 Hot Spot SAR.
2.      For Phablet devices: when Hotspot Mode is not supported, Product Specific 10-g SAR is required for all surfaces and edges with an antenna
        located at ≤ 25 mm from that surface or edge in direct contact with a flat phantom, to address interactive hand use exposure conditions.
3.      For Phablet devices: when hotspot mode applies, Product Specific 10-g SAR is required only for the surfaces and edges with hotspot mode
        1-g reported SAR > 1.2 W/kg.
4.      The WWAN Sub Antenna (AS-Div) does not support FCC bands.

8. Dielectric Property Measurements & System Check
8.1.     Dielectric Property Measurements
The temperature of the tissue-equivalent medium used during measurement must also be within 18°C to 25°C and
within ± 2°C of the temperature when the tissue parameters are characterized.
The dielectric parameters must be measured before the tissue-equivalent medium is used in a series of SAR
measurements. The parameters should be re-measured after each 3 – 4 days of use; or earlier if the dielectric
parameters can become out of tolerance; for example, when the parameters are marginal at the beginning of the
measurement series.
Tissue dielectric parameters were measured at the low, middle and high frequency of each operating frequency range
of the test device.
The dielectric constant (εr) and conductivity (σ) of typical tissue-equivalent media recipes are expected to
be within ± 5% of the required target values; but for SAR measurement systems that have implemented the SAR
error compensation algorithms documented in IEEE Std 1528-2013, to automatically compensate the measured SAR
results for deviations between the measured and required tissue dielectric parameters, the tolerance for εr and σ may
be relaxed to ± 10%. This is limited to frequencies ≤ 3 GHz.

8.2.         System Check
SAR system verification is required to confirm measurement accuracy, according to the tissue dielectric media, probe
calibration points and other system operating parameters required for measuring the SAR of a test device. The
system verification must be performed for each frequency band and within the valid range of each probe calibration
point required for testing the device. The same SAR probe(s) and tissue-equivalent media combinations used with
each specific SAR system for system verification must be used for device testing. When multiple probe calibration
points are required to cover substantially large transmission bands, independent system verifications are required for
each probe calibration point. A system verification must be performed before each series of SAR measurements
using the same probe calibration point and tissue-equivalent medium. Additional system verification should be
considered according to the conditions of the tissue-equivalent medium and measured tissue dielectric parameters,
typically every three to four days when the liquid parameters are re-measured or sooner when marginal liquid
parameters are used at the beginning of a series of measurements.

System Performance Check Measurement Conditions:
•        The measurements were performed in the flat section of the TWIN SAM or ELI phantom, shell thickness: 2.0
         ±0.2 mm (bottom plate) filled with Body or Head simulating liquid of the following parameters.
•        The depth of tissue-equivalent liquid in a phantom must be ≥ 15.0 cm for SAR measurements ≤ 3 GHz and ≥
         10.0 cm for measurements > 3 GHz.
•        The DASY system with an E-Field Probe was used for the measurements.
•        The dipole was mounted on the small tripod so that the dipole feed point was positioned below the center
         marking of the flat phantom section and the dipole was oriented parallel to the body axis (the long side of the
         phantom). The standard measuring distance was 10 mm (above 1 GHz) and 15 mm (below 1 GHz) from dipole
         center to the simulating liquid surface.
•        The coarse grid with a grid spacing of 15 mm was aligned with the dipole.
         For 5 GHz band - The coarse grid with a grid spacing of 10 mm was aligned with the dipole.
•        Special 7x7x7 (below 3 GHz) and/or 8x8x7 (above 3 GHz) fine cube was chosen for the cube.
•        Distance between probe sensors and phantom surface was set to 3 mm.
         For 5 GHz band - Distance between probe sensors and phantom surface was set to 2.5 mm
•        The dipole input power (forward power) was 100 mW.
•        The results are normalized to 1 W input power.

System Check Results
The 1-g and 10-g SAR measured with a reference dipole, using the required tissue-equivalent medium at the test
frequency, must be within 10% of the manufacturer calibrated dipole SAR target.

9. Conducted Output Power Measurements
9.1.    LTE
The following tests were conducted according to the test requirements outlined in section 6.2 of the 3GPP TS36.101
specification.
UE Power Class: 3 (23 +/- 2dBm). The allowed Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for the maximum output power
due to higher order modulation and transmit bandwidth configuration (resource blocks) is specified in Table 6.2.3-1
of the 3GPP TS36.101.




The allowed A-MPR values specified below in Table 6.2.4.-1 of 3GPP TS36.101 are in addition to the allowed MPR
requirements. All the measurements below were performed with A-MPR disabled, by using Network Signaling Value
of “NS_01”.

9.2. LTE Carrier Aggregation
The following tests were conducted according to the test requirements outlined in section 6.2 of the 3GPP TS36.101
specification.

For inter-band carrier aggregation with uplink assigned to one E-UTRA band (Table 5.6A-1), the requirements in
subclause 6.2.3 apply.

For inter-band carrier aggregation with one component carrier per operating band and the uplink active in two E-
UTRA bands, the requirements in subclause 6.2.3 apply for each uplink component carrier.

For intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation the allowed Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for the maximum output
power applicable to the DUT in table below. In case the modulation format is different on different component carriers
then the MPR is determined by the rules applied to higher order of those modulations.




For PUCCH and SRS transmissions, the allowed MPR is according to that specified for PUSCH WPDK modulation
for the corresponding transmission bandwidth.

For intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation bandwidth class C with non-contiguous resource allocation, the allowed
Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for the maximum output power in Table 6.2.2A-1 is specified as follows

                                                        MPR = CEIL {min(MA, MIM5), 0.5}

                            MIM5 =      4.5           ; ∆IM5 < 1.5 * BW Channel_CA

Where
             A = NRB_alloc / NRB_agg

             ∆IM5 = max(│FC_agg – (3*Fagg_alloc_low – 2*Fagg_alloc_high)│, │FC_agg – (3*Fagg_alloc_high – 2*Fagg_alloc_low)│)

         CEIL{MA, 0.5} means rounding upwards to closest 0.5dB, i.e. MPR ∈ [3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5,
7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5]

For intra-band carrier aggregation, the MPR is evaluated per slot and given by the maximum value taken over the
transmission(s) on all component carriers within the slot; the maximum MPR over the two slots is then applied for the
entire subframe.

For intra-band non-contiguous carrier aggregation with one uplink carrier on the PCC, the requirements in the
subclause 6.2.3 apply. For intra-band non-contiguous aggregation with two uplink carriers the MPR is defined tfor
those E-UTRA bands where maximum possible W GAP ≤ 42.2 MHz as follows

                                                                MPR = CEIL{MA, 0.5}

                                      MN =    -0.125N + 18.25       ; 2 ≤ N ≤ 50
                                              -0.0333 N + 13.67     ; 50 < N ≤ 200
Where N = NRB_alloc is the number of allocated resource blocks.
For the UE maximum output power modified by MPR, the power limits specified in subclause 6.2.5A apply.

Report No.: 12371499-S1V1                                                                               Issue Date: 8/6/2018

10.     Measured and Reported (Scaled) SAR Results
SAR Test Reduction criteria are as follows:
•   Reported SAR(W/kg) for WWAN = Measured SAR *Tune-up Scaling Factor
•   Reported SAR(W/kg) for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth = Measured SAR * Tune-up scaling factor * Duty Cycle scaling factor
•   Duty Cycle scaling factor = 1 / Duty cycle (%)

KDB 447498 D01 General RF Exposure Guidance:
Testing of other required channels within the operating mode of a frequency band is not required when the reported 1-g or 10-g
SAR for the mid-band or highest output power channel is:
•   ≤ 0.8 W/kg or 2.0 W/kg, for 1-g or 10-g respectively, when the transmission band is ≤ 100 MHz
•   ≤ 0.6 W/kg or 1.5 W/kg, for 1-g or 10-g respectively, when the transmission band is between 100 MHz and 200 MHz
•   ≤ 0.4 W/kg or 1.0 W/kg, for 1-g or 10-g respectively, when the transmission band is ≥ 200 MHz

KDB 648474 D04 Handset SAR:
With headset attached, when the reported SAR for body-worn accessory, measured without a headset connected to the handset,
is > 1.2 W/kg, the highest reported SAR configuration for that wireless mode and frequency band should be repeated for that
body-worn accessory with a headset attached to the handset.

KDB 648474 D04 Handset SAR (Phablet Only):
When hotspot mode does not apply, Product Specific 10-g SAR is required for all surfaces and edges with an antenna located at
≤ 25 mm from that surface or edge in direct contact with a flat phantom, to address interactive hand use exposure conditions.
When hotspot mode applies, Product Specific 10-g SAR is required only for the surfaces and edges with hotspot mode 1-g reported
SAR > 1.2 W/kg .

KDB 941225 D05 SAR for LTE Devices:
SAR test reduction is applied using the following criteria:
•  Start with the largest channel bandwidth and measure SAR for QPSK with 1 RB, and 50% RB allocation, using the RB offset
   and required test channel combination with the highest maximum output power among RB offsets at the upper edge, middle
   and lower edge of each required test channel.
•  When the reported SAR is > 0.8 W/kg, testing for other Channels is performed at the highest output power level for 1RB, and
   50% RB configuration for that channel.
•  Testing for 100% RB configuration is performed at the highest output power level for 100% RB configuration across the Low,
   Mid and High Channel when the highest reported SAR for 1 RB and 50% RB are > 0.8 W/kg. Testing for the remaining
   required channels is not needed because the reported SAR for 100% RB Allocation < 1.45 W/kg.
•  Testing for 16-QAM modulation is not required because the reported SAR for QPSK is < 1.45 W/Kg and its output power is
   not more than 0.5 dB higher than that of QPSK.
•  Testing for the other channel bandwidths is not required because the reported SAR for the highest channel bandwidth is <
   1.45 W/Kg and its output power is not more than 0.5 dB higher than that of the highest channel bandwidth.
•  For LTE bands that do not support at least three non-overlapping channels in certain channel bandwidths, test the available
   non-overlapping channels instead. When a device supports overlapping channel assignment in a channel bandwidth
   configuration, the middle channel of the group of overlapping channels should be selected for testing; therefore, the
   requirement for H, M and L channels may not fully apply.

11.       SAR Measurement Variability
In accordance with published RF Exposure KDB 865664 D01 SAR measurement 100 MHz to 6 GHz. These
additional measurements are repeated after the completion of all measurements requiring the same head or body
tissue-equivalent medium in a frequency band. The test device should be returned to ambient conditions (normal
room temperature) with the battery fully charged before it is re-mounted on the device holder for the repeated
measurement(s) to minimize any unexpected variations in the repeated results.

1) Repeated measurement is not required when the original highest measured SAR is <0.8 or 2 W/kg (1-g or 10-g
   respectively); steps 2) through 4) do not apply.
2) When the original highest measured SAR is ≥ 0.8 or 2 W/kg (1-g or 10-g respectively), repeat that measurement
   once.
3) Perform a second repeated measurement only if the ratio of largest to smallest SAR for the original and first
   repeated measurements is > 1.20 or when the original or repeated measurement is ≥ 1.45 or 3.6 W/kg (~ 10%
   from the 1-g or 10-g respective SAR limit).
4) Perform a third repeated measurement only if the original, first, or second repeated measurement is ≥ 1.5 or 3.75
   W/kg (1-g or 10-g respectively) and the ratio of largest to smallest SAR for the original, first and second repeated
   measurements is > 1.20.

12.            Simultaneous Transmission Conditions




Note(s):
1.      BT and WLAN 2.4G function can be used at the same time, but the antenna switch is shared for both RF paths.
2.      Simultaneous cases other than Cases 1-16 (in above table) are not supported in this device.


12.1. Simultaneous transmission SAR test exclusion considerations
KDB 447498 D01 General RF Exposure Guidance provides two procedures for determining simultaneous
transmission SAR test exclusion: Sum of SAR and SAR to Peak Location Ratio (SPLSR)

12.1.1.            Sum of SAR
To qualify for simultaneous transmission SAR test exclusion based upon Sum of SAR the sum of the reported
standalone SARs for all simultaneously transmitting antennas shall be below the applicable standalone SAR limit. If
the sum of the SARs is above the applicable limit then simultaneous transmission SAR test exclusion may still apply
if the requirements of the SAR to Peak Location Ratio (SPLSR) evaluation are met.


12.2. Sum of the SAR for WWAN & Wi-Fi & BT
                                                 Standalone SAR (W/kg)                                                              ∑ 1-g SAR (W/kg)
