7. Operational description

          7.1 EUT details

RF- Transmitter, protective field system for self-propelled BOMAG multipurpose compactors, based on active
transponder technology

          7.2 EUT configuration

After connection with a power supply the Protective field system RF transmitter begins to run.

          7.3 EUT measurement description

The Protective field system RF transmitter was tested in a typical fashion. During preliminary emission
tests the Protective field system RF transmitter was operated in continuous transmitting mode for worst case
emission mode investigation. Therefore, the final qualification testing was completed with Protective field
system RF transmitter operated in continuous modes.
All tests were performed with the applicant’s typical voltage: 3.6 V DC
In order to establish the maximum radiation, firstly, there have been viewed all orthogonal adjustments of the
test samples, secondly the test ample have been rotated at all adjustments around the own axis between 0° and
360°, and thirdly, the antenna polarization between horizontal and vertical had been varied.

8. Compliance assessment

8.1 Antenna requirement

An intentional radiator shall be designed to ensure that no antenna other than that furnished by the responsible
party shall be used with the device. The use of a permanently attached antenna or of an antenna that uses a unique
coupling to the intentional radiator shall be considered sufficient to comply with the provisions of this Section. The
manufacturer may design the unit so that a broken antenna can be replaced by the user, but the use of a standard
antenna jack or electrical connector is prohibited. This requirement does not apply to carrier current devices or to
devices operated under the provisions of Sections 15.211, 15.213, 15.217, 15.219, or 15.221. Further, this
requirement does not apply to intentional radiators that must be professionally installed, such as perimeter
protection systems and some field disturbance sensors, or to other intentional radiators which, in accordance with
Section 15.31(d), must be measured at the installation site. However, the installer shall be responsible for ensuring
that the proper antenna is employed so that the limits in this Part are not exceeded.

8.2 Fundamental frequencies / Field strength limits

8.2.1 Regulation
Test requirement: FCC CFR47, Part 15C Section 15.249 Test procedure: ANSI C63.4:2009
     (a) Except as provided in paragraph (b) of this section, the field strength of emissions from intentional
         radiators operated within these frequency bands shall comply with the following:
     (d) Emissions radiated outside of the specified frequency bands, except for harmonics, shall be attenuated by at
         least 50 dB below the level of the fundamental or to the general radiated emission limits in §15.209,
         whichever is the lesser attenuation.
     (e) As shown in §15.35(b), for frequencies above 1000 MHz, the field strength limits in paragraphs (a) and (b)
         of this section are based on average limits. However, the peak field strength of any emission shall not
         exceed the maximum permitted average limits specified above by more than 20 dB under any condition of
         modulation. For point-to-point operation under paragraph (b) of this section, the peak field strength shall
         not exceed 2500 millivolts/meter at 3 meters along the antenna azimuth.

     (f) Parties considering the manufacture, importation, marketing or operation of equipment under this section
         should also note the requirement in §15.37(d).

                                                                                               Field strength
                                               Field strength of fundamental
        Fundamental frequency                                                              of spurious emissions
                                                           (µV/m)
                                                                                                  (µV/m)
              902-928    MHz                                 50                                     500
          2400-2483.5    MHz                                 50                                     500
            5725-5875    MHz                                 50                                     500
            24.0-24.25   GHz                                 250                                    2500

     (1) The above field strength limits are specified at a distance of 3 meters. The tighter limits apply at the band
         edges.
     (2) Intentional radiators operating under the provisions of this Section shall demonstrate compliance with the
         limits on the field strength of emissions, as shown in the above table, based on the average value of the
         measured emissions. As an alternative, compliance with the limits in the above table may be based on the
         use of measurement instrumentation with a CISPR quasi-peak detector. The specific method of
         measurement employed shall be specified in the application for equipment authorization. If average
         emission measurements are employed, the provisions in Section 15.35 for averaging pulsed emissions and
         for limiting peak emissions apply. Further, compliance with the provisions of Section 15.205 shall be
         demonstrated using the measurement instrumentation specified in that section.
     (3) The limits on the field strength of the spurious emissions in the above table are based on the fundamental
         frequency of the intentional radiator. Spurious emissions shall be attenuated to the average (or,
         alternatively, CISPR quasi-peak) limits shown in this table or to the general limits shown in Section
         15.209, whichever limit permits higher field strength.
Section 15.33 Frequency range of radiated measurements: (a) Unless otherwise noted in the specific rule section
under which the equipment operates for an intentional radiator the spectrum shall be investigated from the lowest
radio frequency signal generated in the device, without going below 9 kHz, up to at least the frequency shown in
this paragraph: (1) If the intentional radiator operates below 10 GHz: to the tenth harmonic of the highest
fundamental frequency or to 40 GHz, whichever is lower.

8.2.3 Test procedure

The EUT and this peripheral (when additional equipment exists) are placed on a turn table which is 0.8m above the
ground. The turn table would be allowed to rotate 360 degrees to determine the position of the maximum emission level.
The test distance between the EUT and the receiving antenna are 3m. To find the maximum emission, the polarization
of the receiving antenna are changed in horizontal and vertical polarization, the position of the EUT was changed in
different orthogonal determinations.

ANSI C63.4: 2009 Section 8 “Radiated emission measurements”

Measurement procedures for electric field radiated emissions above 1 GHz are covered in Clause 8 of ANSI C63.4-
2009. The C63.4-2009 measurement procedure consists of both an exploratory test and a final measurement. The
exploratory test is critical to determine the frequency of all significant emissions. For each mode of operation
required to be tested, the frequency spectrum is monitored. Variations in antenna height, antenna orientation,
antenna polarization, EUT azimuth, and cable or wire placement is explored to produce the emission that has the
highest amplitude relative to the limit.

The final measurements are made based on the findings in the exploratory testing. When making exploratory and
final measurements it is necessary to maximize the measured radiated emission. Subclause 8.3.1.2 of C63.4-2009
states that the measurement is to be made “while keeping the antenna in the ‘cone of radiation’ from that area and
pointed at the area both in azimuth and elevation, with polarization oriented for maximum response.” We consider
the “cone of radiation” to be the 3 dB beamwidth of the measurement antenna.

While the “bore-sighting” technique is not explicitly mentioned in C63.4-2009, it is a useful technique for
measurements using a directional antenna, such as a double-ridged waveguide antenna. Several precautions must be
observed, including: knowledge of the beamwidth of the antenna and the resulting illumination area relative to the
size of the EUT, estimation for source of the emission and general location within larger EUTS, measuring system
sensitivity, etc.

C63.4-2009 requires that the measurement antenna is kept pointed at the source of the emission both in azimuth
and elevation, with the polarization of the antenna oriented for maximum response. That means that if the
directional radiation pattern of the EUT results in a maximum emission at an upwards angle from the EUT, when a
directional antenna is used to make the measurement it will be necessary for it to be pointed towards the source of
the emission within the EUT. This can be done by either pointing the antenna at an angle towards the source of the
emission, or by rotating the EUT, in both height and polarization, to maximize the measured emission. The
emission must be kept within the illumination area of the 3 dB beamwidth of the antenna so that the maximum
emission from the EUT is measured.

                                                               1 MHz (1000 MHz - 12,000 MHz)

 Receive antenna polarization                                  vertical/horizontal (30 MHz - 12,000 MHz)

*According to Section 15.31 (f) (1): At frequencies at or above 30 MHz, measurements may be performed at a
distance other than what is specified provided: measurements are not made in the near field except where it can be
shown that near field measurements are appropriate due to the characteristics of the device; and it can be
demonstrated that the signal levels needed to be measured at the distance employed can be detected by the
measurement equipment. When performing measurements at a distance other than that specified, the results shall be
extrapolated to the specified distance using an extrapolation factor of 20dB/decade (inverse linear-distance for field
strength measurements; inverse-linear-distance-squared for power density measurements).

8.2.4 Calculation of the average correction factor

The average correction factor is computed by analyzing the "worst case" on time in any 100msec time period and
using the formula: Corrections Factor + 20*log (worst case on time/100msec). Analysis of the remote transmitter
worst case on time in any 100msec time period is an on time of 50msec, therefore the correction factor is 20*log
(50/100) = - 6 dB. The maximum correction factor to be applied is 20 dB per section 15.35 of the FCC rules.


8.2.5 Calculation of the field strengths

The field strength is calculated by the following calculation:

Corrected Level = Receiver Level + Correction Factor (without the use of a pre-amplifier)

Corrected Level = Receiver Level + Correction Factor – Pre-Amplifier (with the use of a pre-amplifier)

Receiver Level              : Receiver reading without correction factors
Correction Factor           : Antenna factor + cable loss

For example:
The receiver reading is 32.7 dBµV. The antenna factor for the measured frequency is +2.5 dB (1/m) and the cable
factor for the measured frequency is 0.71 dB, giving a field strength of 35.91dBµV/m.
The 35.91dBµV/m value can be mathematically converted to its corresponding level in µV/m.

Level in µV/m = Common Antilogarithm (35.91/20) = 39.8

For test distance other than what is specified, but fulfilling the requirements of Section 15.31 (f) (1) the field strength is
calculated by adding additionally an extrapolation factor of 20 dB/decade (inverse linear distance for field strength
measurements).

8.3 Radiated emission limits

Test requirement: FCC CFR47, Part 15C Section 15.209 Test procedure: ANSI C63.4:2009
Section 15.209 (a) except as provided elsewhere in this subpart, the emissions from an intentional radiator
shall not exceed the field strength levels specified in the following table:

               Frequency                             Field strength                     Measurement distance
                  (MHz)                                 (µV/m)                                 (m)
              0.009 - 0.490                           2400/F(kHz)                              300
              0.490 - 1.705                          24000/F(kHz)                               30
               1.705 - 30.0                                30                                   30
                  30 - 88                                 100                                    3
                 88 - 216                                 150                                   3
                216 - 960                                 200                                   3
               Above 960                                  500                                    3

(b) In the emission table above, the tighter limit applies at the band edges.

(c) The level of any unwanted emissions from an intentional radiator operating under these general provisions shall
    not exceed the level of the fundamental emission. For intentional radiators which operate under the provisions
    of other sections within this part and which are required to reduce their unwanted emissions to the limits
    specified in this table, the limits in this table are based on the frequency of the unwanted emission and not the
    fundamental frequency. However, the level of any unwanted emissions shall not exceed the level of the
    fundamental frequency.
(d) The emission limits shown in the above table are based on measurements employing a CISPR quasi peak
    detector except for the frequency bands 9-90 kHz, 110-490 kHz and above 1000 MHz. Radiated emission limits
    in these three bands are based on measurements employing an average detector.
(e) The provisions in §§ 15.31, 15.33, and 15.35 for measuring emissions at distances other than the distances
    specified in the above table, determining the frequency range over which radiated emissions are to be
    measured, and limiting peak emissions apply to all devices operated under this part.

(f) In accordance with Section 15.33(a), in some cases the emissions from an intentional radiator must be measured
    to beyond the tenth harmonic of the highest fundamental frequency designed to be emitted by the intentional
    radiator because of the incorporation of a digital device. lf measurements above the tenth harmonic are so
    required, the radiated emissions above the tenth harmonic shall comply with the general radiated emission limits
    applicable to the incorporated digital device, as shown in Section 15.109 and as based on the frequency of the
    emission being measured, or, except for emissions contained in the restricted frequency bands shown in Section
    15.205, the limit on spurious emissions specified for the intentional radiator, whichever is the higher limit.
    Emissions which must be measured above the tenth harmonic of the highest fundamental frequency designed to
    be emitted by the intentional radiator and which fall within the restricted bands shall comply with the general
    radiated emission limits in Section 15.109 that are applicable to the incorporated digital device.

8.4 Bandwidth (20 dB)

(c) Intentional radiators operating under the alternative provisions to the general emission limits, as contained in
§§15.217 through 15.257 and in Subpart E of this part, must be designed to ensure that the 20 dB bandwidth of the
emission, or whatever bandwidth may otherwise be specified in the specific rule section under which the equipment
operates, is contained within the frequency band designated in the rule section under which the equipment is
operated. The requirement to contain the designated bandwidth of the emission within the specified frequency band
includes the effects from frequency sweeping, frequency hopping and other modulation techniques that may be
employed as well as the frequency stability of the transmitter over expected variations in temperature and supply
voltage. If a frequency stability is not specified in the regulations, it is recommended that the fundamental emission
be kept within at least the central 80% of the permitted band in order to minimize the possibility of out-of-band
operation.

8.4.2 Test procedure

ANSI C63.4-2009 Section 13.1.7 Occupied bandwidth measurements. The bandwidth is measured at an amplitude level
reduced from the reference level by a specified ratio. The reference level is the level of the highest amplitude signal
observed from the transmitter at either the fundamental frequency or first-order modulation products in all typical modes
of operation, including the unmodulated carrier, even if atypical. Once the reference level is established, the equipment
is conditioned with typical modulating signals to produce worst-case (i.e., the widest) bandwidth. In order to measure
the modulated signal properly, a resolution bandwidth that is small compared to the bandwidth required by the
procuring or regulatory agency shall be used on the measuring instrument. However, the 6 dB resolution bandwidth of
the measuring instrument shall be set to a value greater than 5 % of the bandwidth requirements.


8.4.3 20 dB bandwidth limit

The 20 dB bandwidth limit = 500 kHz


8.4.4 Result

The measured 20 dB bandwidth is:                                67.9 kHz

   The equipment meets the requirements                                                              Yes      No       N.t.
