Description of EUT

The EUT is a Wireless Mini PCI Adapter, and was defined as information technology
equipment.

Modification (02) to test report No. EME-061171 (Verification No.: EME-061171)
The original Test Report Ref. No. EME-061171, dated Nov. 9, 2006 was modified on Mar.
17, 2009 to include the following changes and/or additions, which were considered
technical modifications:

    Add a PIFA antenna, gain 2 dBi (Model No.: IFF-A005MPLJ-508(SSP-80446-S3))


For more detail features, please refer to User's manual as file name “Installation
guide.pdf”


Antenna description

The antenna is affixed to the EUT using a unique connector, which allows for
replacement of a broken antenna, but DOES NOT use a standard antenna jack or
electrical connector.

Antenna Gain         : 2 dBi
Antenna Type         : PIFA antenna
Connector Type       : U.FL


Operation mode

The EUT was supplied with DC 3.3 V from Notebook PC and it was running in
operating mode.

The EUT was transmitted continuously during the test.

With individual verifying, the maximum output power was found at 1 Mbps data rate for
802.11b mode and 6 Mbps data rate for 802.11g mode. The final tests were executed
under these conditions and recorded in this report individually.

4. Radiated Spurious Emission

 Name of Test          Radiated Spurious Emission
 Base Standard         FCC 15.247(d), 15.209, 15.205


Test Result:                      Complies
Measurement Data:                 See Tables below


Method of Measurement:
Reference FCC document: KDB558074, ANSI C63.4
The frequency range from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz using Bilog Antenna.
The frequency range over 1 GHz using Horn Antenna.

Radiated emissions were invested cover the frequency range from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz
using a receiver RBW of 120 kHz record QP reading, and the frequency over 1 GHz
using a spectrum analyzer RBW of 1 MHz and 10 Hz VBW record Average reading.
(15.209 paragraph), the Peak reading (1 MHz RBW/VBW) recorded also on the report.
The EUT for testing is arranged on a wooden turntable. If some peripherals apply to the
EUT, the peripherals will be connected to EUT and the whole system. During the test, all
cables were arranged to produce worst-case emissions. The signal is maximized
through rotation. The height of antenna and polarization is changing constantly for
exploring for maximum signal level. The height of antenna can be up to 4 meters and
down to 1 meter. The measurement for radiated emission will be done at the distance of
three meters unless the signal level is too low to measure at that distance. In the case of
the reading under noise floor, a pre-amplifier is used and/or the test is conducted at a
closer distance. And then all readings are extrapolated back to the equivalent 3 meters
reading using inverse scaling with distance.
The EUT configuration please refer to the “Spurious set-up photo.pdf”.

5. Emission on Band Edge

 Name of Test       Emission Band Edge
 Base Standard      FCC 15.247(d)


Test Result:                  Complies
Measurement Data:             See Tables & plots below


Method of Measurement:
Reference FCC document: KDB558074, ANSI C63.4
The frequency range from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz using Bilog Antenna.
The frequency range over 1 GHz using Horn Antenna.

Radiated emissions were invested cover the frequency range from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz
using a receiver RBW of 120 kHz record QP reading, and the frequency over 1 GHz
using a spectrum analyzer RBW of 1 MHz and 10 Hz VBW record Average reading.
(15.209 paragraph), the Peak reading (1 MHz RBW/VBW) recorded also on the report.



Note:   The EUT was tested while in a continuous transmit mode and the worst case
        data rates are 1 Mbps for 802.11b and 6 Mbps for 802.11g. The EUT was
        tuned to a low, middle and high channel.

Measurement Uncertainty:

Measurement uncertainty was calculated in accordance with NAMAS NIS 81.

        Parameter                  Uncertainty
    Radiated Emission                ±4.98 dB
   Conducted Emission                ±2.6 dB


This uncertainty represents an expanded uncertainty expressed at approximately the 95
% confidence level using a coverage factor of k=2.
