6. Test Procedures
ANSI C63.19-2011, Section 7
This document describes the procedures used to measure the ABM (T-Coil) performance of the WD. In
addition to measuring the absolute signal levels, the A-weighted magnitude of the unintended signal shall
also be determined. In order to assure that the required signal quality is measured, the measurement of
the intended signal and the measurement of the unintended signal must be made at the same location for
all measurement positions. In addition, the RF field strength at each measurement location must be at or
below that required for the assigned category.
Measurements shall not include undesired properties from the WD’s RF field; therefore, use of a coaxial
connection to a base station simulator or non-radiating load may be necessary. However, even then with
a coaxial connection to a base station simulator or non-radiating load there may still be RF leakage from
the WD, which may interfere with the desired measurement. Pre-measurement checks should be made to
avoid this possibility. All measurements shall be done with the WD operating on battery power with an
appropriate normal speech audio signal input level given in Table 7.1. If the device display can be turned
off during a phone call then that may be done during the measurement as well.
Measurements shall be performed at two locations specified in A.3, with the correct probe orientation for a
particular location, in a multistage sequence by first measuring the field intensity of the desired T-Coil
signal (ABM1) that is useful to a hearing aid T-Coil. The undesired magnetic components (ABM2) must be
measured at the same location as the desired ABM or T-Coil signal (ABM1), and the ratio of desired to
undesired ABM signals must be calculated. For the perpendicular field location, only the ABM1 frequency
response shall be determined in a third measurement stage. The flow chart in Figure 7.3 illustrates this
three-stage, two orientation process.
The following steps summarize the basic test flow for determining ABM11 and ABM22. These steps
assume that a sine wave or narrowband 1/3 octave signal can be used for the measurement of ABM1.
      a. A validation of the test setup and instrumentation may be performed using a TMFS or Helmholtz
         coil. Measure the emissions and confirm that they are within the specified tolerance.
      b. Position the WD in the test setup and connect the WD RF connector to a base station simulator or
         a non-radiating load as shown in Figure 7.1 or Figure 7.2. Confirm that equipment that requires
         calibration has been calibrated, and that the noise level meets the requirements given in 7.3.1.
      c. The drive level to the WD is set such that the reference input level specified in Table 7.1 is input to
         the base station simulator (or manufacturer’s test mode equivalent) in the 1 kHz, 1/3 octave band.
         This drive level shall be used for the T-Coil signal test (ABM1) at f = 1 kHz. Either a sine wave at
         1025 Hz or a voice-like signal, band-limited to the 1 kHz 1/3 octave, as defined in 7.4.2, shall be
         used for the reference audio signal. If interference is found at 1025 Hz an alternative nearby
         reference audio signal frequency may be used.46 The same drive level will be used for the ABM1
         frequency response measurements at each 1/3 octave band center frequency. The WD volume
         control may be set at any level up to maximum, provided that a signal at any frequency at
         maximum modulation would not result in clipping or signal overload.
      d. Determine the magnetic measurement locations for the WD device (A.3), if not already specified
         by the manufacturer, as described in 7.4.4.1.1 and 7.4.4.2.

    e. At each measurement location, measure and record the desired T-Coil magnetic signals (ABM1 at
       fi) as described in 7.4.4.2 in each individual ISO 266-1975 R10 standard 1/3 octave band. The
       desired audio band input frequency (fi) shall be centered in each 1/3 octave band maintaining the
       same drive level as determined in item c) and the reading taken for that band.
                Equivalent methods of determining the frequency response may also be employed, such as
                fast Fourier transform (FFT) analysis using noise excitation or input–output comparison
                using simulated speech. The full-band integrated or half-band integrated probe output, as
                specified in D.9, may be used, as long as the appropriate calibration curve is applied to the
                measured result, so as to yield an accurate measurement of the field magnitude. (The
                resulting measurement shall be an accurate measurement in dB A/m.)
                All measurements of the desired signal shall be shown to be of the desired signal and not
                of an undesired signal. This may be shown by turning the desired signal ON and OFF with
                the probe measuring the same location. If the scanning method is used the scans shall
                show that all measurement points selected for the ABM1 measurement meet the ambient
                and test system noise criteria in 7.3.1.
    f.   At the measurement location for each orientation, measure and record the undesired broadband
         audio magnetic signal (ABM2) as specified in 7.4.4.4 with no audio signal applied (or digital zero
         applied, if appropriate) using A-weighting and the half-band integrator. Calculate the ratio of the
         desired to undesired signal strength (i.e., signal quality).
    g. Obtain the data from the postprocessor, SEMCAD, and determine the category that properly
       classifies the signal quality based on Table 8.5.

7. Establish WD Reference Level
First step is to find the Uref, which is 1 kHz signal output of the CMU200. The following figures show the setup for
the measurements. The first step is to measure Uref and the following step is to measure U, which is the signal from
AMMI to the CMU200 during testing.

The setup shown below is used to measure Uref. To measure the reference input level, first connect the Coil In of
the AMMI to the Audio Out of the CMU200 (as indicated by the figure below). Then establish a conducted link
between the EUT and the CMU200. Once the link is established, select the network tab of the CMU200 and change
the bitstream setting to decoder cal in order for the CMU to produce the necessary calibration 1 kHz signal. Record
the value from the Dasy4 file and use this value as Uref.

Next step is to measure U, which is the signal from AMMI to the CMU200 during testing. The following setup is used
to measure U for narrow band (Voice1.025 kHz) and broad band (300 Hz – 300 kHz) signals:
To determine the DASY gain setting necessary to achieve the proper EUT signal level, connect the Coil In of AMMI
to the Audio Out of AMMI. Run the narrow band job (Voice 1.025kHz signal setting) from DASY4 and record the
RMS coil signal. Adjust the gain of the signal by changing the gain value within the particular DASY job until the coil
signal reading is that of the desired output signal level. Repeat this step for the broad band job (Voice 300 – 3kHz
signal).

8. T-coil Measurement Criteria
8.1. Frequency Response
The frequency response of the axial component of the magnetic field, measured in 1/3 octave bands, shall follow the
response curve, over the frequency range 300 Hz to 3000 Hz.
Figure 8.1 and Figure 8.2 provide the boundaries for the specified frequency. These response curves are for true
field strength measurements of the T-Coil signal. Thus the 6 dB/octave probe response has been corrected from the
raw readings.

8.2. Signal to Noise
This specifies the signal-to-noise quality requirement for the intended T-Coil signal from a WD. The worst signal to
noise of the two T-Coil signal measurements, as determined in Clause 7, shall be used to determine the T-Coil mode
category per Table 8.5.
Only the RF immunity of the hearing aid is measured in T-Coil mode. It is assumed that a hearing aid can have no
immunity to an interference signal in the audio band, which is the intended reception band for this mode. So, the only
criterion that can be measured is the RF immunity in T-Coil Mode. This is measured using the same procedure as for
the audio coupling mode and at the same levels as specified in 6.4.

As per KDB 648474 D03, Wireless Chargers Battery Cover, additional testing is required to substantiate
the worst case HAC rating.
         If the specific handset model (with a wireless charging battery cover supplied with the handset or
         sold separately as an accessory for the handset) is rated as Hearing-aid-compatible (HAC) in
         accordance with Section 20.19 of the FCC rules, then the handset must be evaluated with both the
         normal and wireless charging battery covers to determine the worst case HAC rating.
