RADIATION INTERFERENCE: Testing was done in accordance with ANSI C63.4-2001. Section 15.35(b) specifies the use of an average detector in this band. In addition, the peak level of an emission shall not exceed the average limit by more than 20 dB using a minimum Resolution Bandwidth (RBW) of 1 MHz and minimum Video Bandwidth (VBW) OF 1 MHz. The following procedure is designed to determine if there are any spurious emissions from the local oscillator within the band of interest along with any additional spurious emissions caused by other circuitry within the device. 1) Determine the frequency of the peak emission: Start Frequency 11.7 GHz Stop Frequency 12.2 GHz RBW equal to or greater than 1 MHz VBW equal to or greater than 1 MHz Detector Function Peak Maximize the emissions with regards to device orientation, antenna polarization, and antenna height. Sweep the band using Max Hold for a minimum of 2 minutes. Record this frequency for measuring the peak emission. In addition record the frequency of other spurious emissions noted. 2) Determine the peak level of the emission: Center Frequency Set to the frequency determined in Step 1 RBW Equal to or greater than 1 MHz VBW Equal to or greater than 1 MHz Detector Function Peak Measure the value of the peak emission using Max Hold for a minimum of 2 minutes. This can be done at zero span or a frequency span where the analyzer does not show a “Measurement Uncalibrated” message. Record the peak value. If the peak measurement is compliant with the average limit an average measurement is not necessary. If the peak value exceeds the average limit by less than 20 dB proceed to Step 3. 3) Determine the average level of the emission: Center Frequency Set to the frequency determined in Step 1 Span Zero RBW Equal to or greater than 1 MHz VBW Equal to or greater than 10 Hz Detector Function Peak This measurement uses video averaging and must be done in Linear mode. The analyzer Reference Level is adjusted so that a signal is clearly visible on the screen. Measure the value of the emission using Max Hold for a minimum of 2 minutes. Record this as the average value. Step 2 and Step 3 should be repeated for other spurious emissions. The ambient temperature of the UUT was 80ºF with a humidity of 70%.

The antenna correction factors are stated in terms of dB. The gain of the Preselector was accounted for in the Spectrum Analyzer Meter Reading. Example: Freq (MHz) METER READING + ACF = FS 33 20 dBuV + 10.36 dB = 30.36 dBuV/m @ 3m ANSI STANDARD C63.4-1992 10.1.7 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES: The unit under test was placed on a table 80 cm high and with dimensions of 1m by 1.5m. The table used for radiated measurements is capable of continuous rotation. When an emission was found, the table was rotated to produce the maximum signal strength. At this point, the antenna was raised and lowered from 1m to 4m. The antenna was placed in both the horizontal and vertical planes.
