This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body. This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still re- sponsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co- location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.

To ensure functionality of the sensor module, users are advised to prevent any metallic parts from contacting +V and IF terminals, or mounted too close to the patch antenna array. Any pressure or stress to the module should be avoided as it may result in performance variations. 4 of 8

MSAN-010 AP11 Miniature K-Band Microwave Sensor Application Note V1.00 CAUTION! Plugging-in the module into an active power supply may not itself cause any damage, but any accidental short to ground during this process may cause component damage in the module. It is therefore recommended that power supply to be SWITCHED OFF first before connecting the modules. 6. Pulsing the Voltage Supply A constant DC power supply is typically supplied to the AP11 sensor module for continuous wave (CW) mode operation. However, lower current consumption is acheivable by pulsing the input voltage supply and a sample and hold circuit at the IF output. The AP11 sensor module can be powered by a +Vin pulse train of 2 KHz pulse repetition frequency (PRF) with a pulse width as narrow as 10 µsec. Sensitivity of the module may be reduced when operating with narrow pulses. The module start up time (settling time) is within 500 nsec, and the off time takes up to 600 nsec. During these periods, the module output could be noisy. Hence the detector should avoid analyzing signals close to these transition periods. User should ensure that the PRF should be more than twice that of the signal frequency for proper re- construction of the Doppler signal. 7. Placing the module in enclosure A suitable plastic material with both lower dielectric constant and lower loss tangent (i.e., ABS, Polycarbonate) is preferred. Microwaves penetrate through many plastics without significant loss as long as it does not have direct contact with the antenna patch surface. In comparison, metal and water results in significant reflection of microwaves. Therefore any metallic materials or metal plated plastics in front of the antenna will negatively affect the performance of the sensor. Sensitivity of the sensor can be affected by the thickness of the plastic enclosure and the spacing between the antenna and the enclosure. Depending on the dielectric constant of the material and the operating frequency of the sensor, the required enclosure thickness and sensor-enclosure distance can vary. For typical ABS enclosures, we recommend a distance of 4-6 mm between the sensor and the enclosure. This distance can be fine-tuned for optimum performance. The enclosure thickness can be between 0.5 to 8 mm, depending on mechanical requirements. Details are presented in Figure 7. 5 of 8
