Remarks:

1. FCC Part 15 subpart B, ICES 003 and CISPR 22 contain different definitions of Class A and
   Class B limits, i.e. which class is applicable to which kind of EUT.
   ICES 003 and CISPR 22 distinguish between the location where the EUT is intended to
   operate whilst FCC refers to the method of commercial distribution (distributive trades).
2. The correct assignment of the appropriate class to the concrete EUT is not scope of this
   test report!
3. A radio apparatus that is specifically subject to an Industry Canada Radio Standard
   Specification (RSS) and which contains an ITE is not subject to ICES-003 provided the ITE
   is used only to enable operation of the radio apparatus and the ITE does not control
   additional functions or capabilities.
4. ISM (Industrial, Scientific or Medical) radio frequency generators, though they may contain
   ITE, are excluded from the definition of ITE and are not subject to ICES-003. They are
   instead subject to the Interference-Causing Equipment Standard ICES-001, which
   specifically addresses ISM radio frequency generators.

4     TEST RESULTS



4.1    CONDUCTED EMISSIONS AT AC MAINS

Standard      FCC Part 15 Subpart B

The test was performed according to:
ANSI C63.4

4.1.1 TEST DESCRIPTION

The test set-up was made in accordance to the general provisions of ANSI C 63.4
The Equipment Under Test (EUT) was setup in a shielded room to perform the conducted
emissions measurements in a typical installation configuration. The EUT was powered from
50µH || 50 Ohm Line Impedance Stabilization Network (LISN). The LISN’s unused connections
were terminated with 50 Ohm loads.

The measurement procedure consists of two steps. It is implemented into the EMI test
software EMC-32 from R&S.

Step 1: Preliminary scan
Intention of this step is, to determine the conducted EMI-profile of the EUT.
EMI receiver settings:
- Detector: Peak – Maxhold & Average
- Frequency range: 150 kHz – 30 MHz
- Frequency steps: 2.5 kHz
- IF–Bandwidth: 9 kHz
- Measuring time / Frequency step: 100 ms (FFT-based)
- Measurement on phase + neutral lines of the power cords

On basis of this preliminary scan the highest amplitudes and the corresponding frequencies
relative to the limit are identified. Emissions above the limit and emissions which are in the 10
dB range below the limit are considered.

Step 2: Final measurement
Intention of this step is, to determine the highest emissions with the settings defined in the
test specification for the frequencies identified in step 1.
EMI receiver settings:
- Detector: Quasi-Peak
- IF Bandwidth: 9 kHz
- Measuring time: 1 s / frequency

At each frequency determined in step 1, four measurements are performed in the following
combinations:
1) Neutral lead - reference ground (PE grounded)
2) Phase lead - reference ground (PE grounded)
3) Neutral lead - reference ground (PE floating)
4) Phase lead - reference ground (PE floating)

The highest value is reported.

4.2   RADIATED EMISSIONS

Standard      FCC Part 15 Subpart B

The test was performed according to:
ANSI C63.4

4.2.1 TEST DESCRIPTION

The test set-up was made in accordance to the general provisions of ANSI C63.4 in a typical
installation configuration. The Equipment Under Test (EUT) was set up on a non-conductive
table 1.0 x 2.0 m² in the semi-anechoic chamber. The influence of the EUT support table that
is used was evaluated. For the measurement above 1 GHz an absorber field with 30 cm
pyramidical absorber is placed between EUT table and antenna (required to fulfil the CISPR
16.1.4 S-VSWR criteria).
The measurement procedure is implemented into the EMI test software EMC32 from R&S.

1. Measurement above 30 MHz and up to 1 GHz

Step 1: Preliminary scan
This is a preliminary test to identify the highest amplitudes relative to the limit.
Settings for step 1:
- Antenna distance: 3 m
- Detector: Peak-Maxhold / Quasipeak (FFT-based)
- Frequency range: 30 – 1000 MHz
- Frequency steps: 30 kHz
- IF–Bandwidth: 120 kHz
- Measuring time / Frequency step: 100 ms
- Turntable angle range: –180° to 90°
- Turntable step size: 90°
- Height variation range: 1 – 3 m
- Height variation step size: 2 m
- Polarisation: Horizontal + Vertical
Intention of this step is, to determine the radiated EMI-profile of the EUT. Afterwards the
relevant emissions for the final measurement are identified.

Step 2: Adjustment measurement
In this step the accuracy of the turntable azimuth and antenna height will be improved. This is
necessary to find out the maximum value of every frequency.
For each frequency, which was determined the turntable azimuth and antenna height will be
adjusted. The turntable azimuth will slowly vary by ± 45° around this value. During this action,
the value of emission is continuously measured. The turntable azimuth at the highest emission
will be recorded and adjusted. In this position, the antenna height will also slowly vary by ±
100 cm around the antenna height determined. During this action, the value of emission is
also continuously measured. The antenna height of the highest emission will also be recorded
and adjusted.
- Detector: Peak – Maxhold
- Measured frequencies: in step 1 determined frequencies
- IF – Bandwidth: 120 kHz
- Measuring time: 100 ms
- Turntable angle range: ± 45 ° around the determined value
- Height variation range: ± 100 cm around the determined value

 TEST REPORT REFERENCE: MDE_UBLOX_1712_FCCc                                          Page 13 of 28


- Antenna Polarisation: max. value determined in step 1

Step 3: Final measurement with QP detector
With the settings determined in step 3, the final measurement will be performed:
EMI receiver settings for step 4:
- Detector: Quasi-Peak
- Measured frequencies: in step 1 determined frequencies
- IF – Bandwidth: 120 kHz
- Measuring time: 1 s

2. Measurement above 1 GHz

Step 1: Preliminary scan
This is a preliminary test to identify the highest amplitudes relative to the limit.
Settings for step 1:
- Antenna distance: 3 m
- Detector: Peak-Maxhold / Average (up to 7 GHz FFT-based)
- Frequency range: 30 – 1000 MHz
- Frequency steps: 250 kHz
- IF–Bandwidth: 1 MHz
- Measuring time / Frequency step: 100 ms (up to 7 GHz) / 500µs (above 7 GHz
- Turntable angle range: –180° to 45°
- Turntable step size: 45°
- Height variation range: 1 – 3.6 m (due to the small antenna lobe, a tilt-mast is used)
- Height variation step size: 0.9 m
- Polarisation: Horizontal + Vertical
Intention of this step is, to determine the radiated EMI-profile of the EUT. Afterwards the
relevant emissions for the final measurement are identified.

Step 2: Adjustment measurement
In this step the accuracy of the turntable azimuth and antenna height will be improved. This is
necessary to find out the maximum value of every frequency.
For each frequency, which was determined the turntable azimuth and antenna height will be
adjusted. The turntable azimuth will slowly vary by ± 22.5° around this value. During this
action, the value of emission is continuously measured. The turntable azimuth at the highest
emission will be recorded and adjusted. In this position, the antenna height will also slowly
vary by ± 45 cm around the antenna height determined. During this action, the value of
emission is also continuously measured. The antenna height of the highest emission will also
be recorded and adjusted.
- Detector: Peak – Maxhold
- Measured frequencies: in step 1 determined frequencies
- IF – Bandwidth: 1 MHz
- Measuring time: 100 ms
- Turntable angle range: ± 45 ° around the determined value
- Height variation range: ± 45 cm around the determined value
- Antenna Polarisation: max. value determined in step 1

Step 3: Final measurement with Max-Peak / CISPR-Average detector
With the settings determined in step 3, the final measurement will be performed:
EMI receiver settings for step 4:
- Detector: Max-Peak / CISPR-Average
- Measured frequencies: in step 1 determined frequencies
- IF – Bandwidth: 1 MHz
- Measuring time: 200 ms

After each measurement, a report will be generated which contains a diagram with the results
of the preliminary scan and a table with the frequencies, values and polarisation of the results
of the final measurement.

Sample calculation

    ULISN (dB µV) = U (dB µV) + Corr. (dB)
    U = Receiver reading
    LISN Insertion loss = Voltage Division Factor of LISN
    Corr. = sum of single correction factors of used LISN, cables, switch units (if used)
    Linear interpolation will be used for frequencies in between the values in the table.

Sample calculation

  E (dB µV/m) = U (dB µV) + AF (dB 1/m) + Corr. (dB)
  U = Receiver reading
  AF = Antenna factor
  Corr. = sum of single correction factors of used cables, switch unit, distance correction, amplifier (if applicable)
  Linear interpolation will be used for frequencies in between the values in the table.
  distance correction = -20 * LOG (dLimit/ dused)
  Linear interpolation will be used for frequencies in between the values in the table.
  Table shows an extract of values.
