Test Report

GLENAYRE ELECTRONICS FCC ID: BFLGL-T8100 1 of 47 September 1, 1998 Federal Communications Commission Authorized and Evaluation Division 7435 Oakland Mills Road Columbia, MD 21046 Gentlemen: Please find enclosed the application and technical exhibits for Type Acceptance of Glenayre Electronics’ transmitter, FCC ID BFLGL-T8100. This transmitter is an FM land-mobile base unit for use in the 924 to 960 MHertz frequency range with an RF power output of 0.25 Watt. Digital signal processing (DSP) and direct digital synthesis (DDS) techniques are used at low signal levels for processing, modulation, and RF generation. This application demonstrates FCC compliance for digital modulation to 4800 Baud. Glenayre requests that this transmitter be authorized to operate with three optional devices. 1. TX control (TXC) which houses a 10 MHertz reference oscillator and replaces the internal 10 MHertz reference oscillator in the transmitter. This optional unit has been approved for use with other Glenayre transmitters using the same exciter by the FCC under FCC ID: BFLGL-T8600, BFLGL-T8500, BFLGL-T8501, BFLGL-T8601 (and others) . 2. The GL-C2000 is also an external 10 MHertz reference source and controller. The GL-C2000 uses Global Positioning Satellite receivers for precision frequency control of the 10 MHertz oven-controlled crystal oscillator and timing synchronism of the system. This optional unit has been approved for use with Glenayre transmitters using the same exciter by the FCC under FCC ID: BFLGL-T8600, BFLGL-T8500, BFLGL-T8501, BFLGL- T8601 (and others). 3. The Motorola C-Net™ Platinum Series controller. This controller houses the 10 MHertz oscillator, which is the RF reference for the transmitter. Glenayre has characterized the performance of this oscillator over the temperature range of –30 to +50 degrees Centigrade. The Model Number for this controller: C-Net™ Platinum. Glenayre takes the responsibility of ensuring the performance of this oscillator assembly as presented in the technical exhibits is maintained as in Part 2.931. GLENAYRE ELECTRONICS FCC ID: BFLGL-T8100 2 of 47 This optional unit has been approved for use with other Glenayre transmitters using the same exciter by the FCC under FCC ID: BFLGL-T8600-CN. The use of the optional external 10 MHertz reference oscillators in no way degrades the spectral character of the BFLGL-T8100 as presented in this Type Acceptance submission. Sincerely, Chaman L.

Frequency stability is derived directly from the OCXO. The first intermediate frequency and the second intermediate frequency (carrier frequency) are filtered to remove mixing products. The final power amplifier is followed by a low-pass filter to attenuate harmonics that may be produced. 13bModulation limiting circuitsAnalog and digital modulation are accomplished by digital processing. For any audio signal within the specified audio range, deviation is monitored by the DSP circuits and not allowed to exceed the set limit. Digital modulation is determined by the data state of the TTL compatible input. The input only recognizes two data states (1 and 0) and cannot be overdriven to cause over-modulation. 13cPower limiting circuitsPower ge…
