The final test data was measured using a Quasi-Peak detector below 1GHz and a Peak detector above 1GHz. For harmonics of the fundamental, Average measurements were made by correcting the peak value with the duty cycle correction factor. For emissions other than harmonics of the fundamental, the Average measurements were made using the Average detector. The receivers resolution bandwidth was set to 120 kHz for measurements taken in the 30MHz to 1GHz frequency range and 1MHz for measurements for 1GHz and higher. Measurements were made with the antenna positioned in both the horizontal and vertical planes of polarization. The antenna height was varied from 1 m to 2.5 m and the EUT was rotated 360° to find the maximum emitting point for each frequency. The radiated measurements were recorded and compared to the limits indicated in the table below. There is a limit on spurious emissions produced by an intentional radiator in any 100 kHz Bandwidth outside the intentional emission band of -20dBc provided the radiator complies with the limits specified in 15.205© and 15.209(a). Test distance: 30 MHz to 1 GHz - The EUT to measurement antenna distance is 3 meters 1 to 18 GHz - The EUT to measurement antenna distance is 3 meters 18 to 40 GHz - The EUT to measurement antenna distance is 1 meter Limits(1) Peak Limits Frequency Microvolts/m dBuV/m dBuV/m 30 - 88 MHz 100 40 (2) -- (2) 88 - 216 MHz 150 43.5 -- 216 - 960 MHz 200 46 (2) -- 960 - 1000 MHz 500 54 (2) -- 1 - 40 GHz 500 54 (3) 74 (1) These limits are applicable to emissions outside of the intentional transmit frequency band.
