Smart Tag is a 2.4 GHz wireless transceiver. The Smart Tag is used to monitor shipment location, temperature and other conditions as well as shipment sensors. The Smart Tag communicates the information via an IEEE 802.15.4 local wireless network to a central portable or fixed unit. Technical Information: Band of Operation: 2405 MHz - 2480 MHz Number of Channels: 16 Modulation Format: OQPSK Antenna Type/Gain: Printed Inverted-F Antenna, 3 dBi Operating Voltage: 4.2 VDC Manufacturer Information: Locus Solutions LLC 630 Maplewood Drive, Suite 200 Jupiter, FL 33418 Test Sample Serial Number(s): 007003082, 007003120 Test Sample Condition: The unit was in good operating condition with no physical damages. 1.3 Test Methodology and Considerations The Locus Solutions, Inc. Smart Tag was programmed via serial port using the Hyperterminal. The power settings were set to level 3 across the range of operation for the evaluation. The unit was evaluated for radiated and RF conducted measurements. For the radiated emissions evaluation, the unit was setup in three orthogonal orientations. The final measurements were performed using the orientation leading to the highest emissions. The RF conducted measurements were performed with a temporary SMA connector at the RF port of the EUT. The evaluation for the unintentional emissions is documented separately in a Verification Report.
