NORTHWEST EMC, INC. 22975 NW Evergreen Parkway, Suite 400 Hillsboro, OR 97124 February 13, 2007 Dear Application Examiner: On behalf of Intel Corporation, Northwest EMC, Inc is submitting this application for the original certification of Intel's Bluetooth transmitter, FCC ID: EJM-IMOTE1. Intel is seeking a limited modular approval of the Bluetooth radio in their Bluetooth beacon, M/N: Imote1. The transmitter consists of a Zeevo TC200IP Bluetooth chip installed in Imote1. The radio operates in the 2400-2483.5MHz frequency band with a peak conducted output power of 0.72 mW. The USB device can be connected to a power adapter supplied with the unit. It can be powered via an AC adapter, a 12V DC 'cigarette lighter' adapter, or a battery pack adapter. As such, it can be indirectly connected to the AC mains. Intel Corporation has provided a test report that includes a conducted emissions test performed with the USB device connected to an AC adapter. All other radio related tests were performed by Northwest EMC, Inc. The radio utilizes a single integral chip antenna. This configuration satisfies the requirements of 47 CFR 15.203. The antenna is made by gigaAnt. The receiver portion of this radio transceiver has been verified to FCC 15B. The technical reports and exhibits demonstrate compliance with FCC rules 47 CFR 15.247 as a hybrid transmitter. For reference, please see the third example (highlighted) in the attached FCC interpretation. Your efforts in reviewing this application are greatly appreciated. Best regards, Northwest EMC, Inc. Company: Subject:Digital Transmission system 20021209- 001  Remarks: Keyword:BlueTooth FH HS Rule Parts:15.247 City: State: Country: INQUIRY: I have an inquiry about FCC15.247 (f). In this section, it is stated as follows; The digital modulation operation of the hybrid system, with the frequency hopping turned off, shall comply with the power density requirements of paragraph (d) of this section. Should we apply to the above requirement even Bluetooth equipment ? RESPONSE: A bluetooth device may apply under the rules in 15.247 as either a Digital transmission system, a Frequency hopping system or a Hybrid system whichever provides an advantage to the grantee as long as all the requirements are met. Please note the following regarding the requirements for Hybrids and clarification of spread spectrum systems with regard to the recent changes to the spread spectrum rules. Prior to the recent changes to the spread spectrum rules, there were two major types of spread spectrum systems. They were direct sequence and frequency hopping spread spectrum ("FHSS") systems. These two distinct systems were required to comply with separate rule requirements. The new rules, however, allow manufacturers more flexibility and are not as limiting. The new rules provide more flexibility for manufacturers by eliminating the requirement to employ direct sequence modulation techniques along with its associated requirement to comply with a minimum processing gain. Instead, manufacturers now may employ wideband digital modulation under the new rules for Digital Transmissions Systems ("DTS"). It is possible for a device to be designed to operate as a DTS, as a FHSS system, or using a combination of these two modulation types. Because of this, we have received several requests for interpretations by manufacturers that wish to produce transmission systems that employ both frequency hopping (or channel changing) techniques using digitally modulated channels. We believe that such systems fall under three possible combinations of standards, depending on the exact methods of modulation. First example: We will allow a manufacturer of a combination DTS and FHSS system to demonstrate compliance with the rules required for DTS operation or for FHSS operation. There is no need to demonstrate compliance with both the FHSS standards and the DTS standards. Second example: Systems may employ two mutually exclusive operational modes. One mode would be as a FHSS system and the other would be as a DTS. For example, a device may be operated as a FHSS system while transmitting data and as a DTS while in the acquisition mode. When operating in this manner, the device must fully comply with the rules for a FHSS system when operating in that mode and as a DTS when operating in that mode. The two types of operation must be distinct so that each mode of operation can be distinguished and separately demonstrated to comply with the pertinent standards. Third example: The third method of authorizing a combination system is as a hybrid system under the provisions described in Section 15.247(f) of the rules. Prior to the new rules on DTS operation, a hybrid system consisted of a transmission system that employed a combination of both direct sequence and frequency hopping techniques. Such systems were required to show compliance with a 17 dB processing gain. This is no longer required since the processing gain requirement has been replaced by the DTS regulations. A hybrid system uses both digital modulation and frequency hopping techniques at the same time on the same carrier. This is similar to the combination DTS/FHSS system described above in the first example but the system is subject to slightly different standards. As indicated in Section 15.247(f), a hybrid system must comply with the power density standard of 8 dBm in any 3 kHz band when the frequency hopping function is turned off. The transmission also must comply with a 0.4 second/channel maximum dwell time when the hopping function is turned on. There is no requirement for this type of hybrid system to comply with the 500 kHz minimum bandwidth normally associated with a DTS transmission; and, there is no minimum number of hopping channels associated with this type of hybrid system. However, the hopping function must be a true hopping system, as described in Section 15.247(a)(1). The specific requirements in Section 15.247(a)(1) are: 1) A minimum channe…

MPE Estimate Antenna Type Antenna Part No. Transmit Frequency Max Peak Conducted Output Power Antenna Gain Minimum Antenna Cable Loss Power Density @ 20 cm General Population Exposure Limit from 1.1310 (MHz)(mW)(dBi)(dB) (mW/cm 2 )(mW/cm 2 ) Chip 30 30 A5849-PA324000.71554.400.000391 FCC ID: EJM-IMOTE1 Compliance with 47 CFR 15.247(i) “Systems operating under the provisions of this section shall be operated in a manner that ensures that the public is not exposed to radio frequency energy levels in excess of the Commission's guidelines. See § 1.1307(b)(1) of this chapter.” The EUT is a Bluetooth beacon that operates in the 2400-2483.5MHz. The Imote1 will only be used with a separation distance of 20 centimeters or greater between the antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons and can therefore be considered a mobile transmitter per 47 CFR 2.1091(b). The Imote1 has a single antenna, gigaAnt Rufa 2.4GHz SMD Antenna. The peak gain of the antenna is 4.4 dBi. The maximum peak conducted output power was 0.7155 mW. The maximum peak power is 1.97 mW (EIRP) for FCC ID: EJM-IMOTE1. The transmit frequency is 2400-2483.5MHz. The EUT is not subject to routine environmental evaluation per 47 CFR 2.1091(c). Per 47 CFR 1.1310, the EUT must meet the General Population / Uncontrolled exposure limits listed in Table I. The MPE estimates are as follows: Table 1 in 47 CFR 1.1310 defines the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) for the general population as (f MHz /1500) mW/cm 2 . The exposure level at a 20 cm distance from the EUT’s transmitting antenna is calculated using the general equation: S = (PG)/4πR 2 Where: S = power density (mW/cm 2 ) P = power input to the antenna (mW) G = numeric power gain relative to an isotropic radiator R = distance to the center of the radiation of the antenna (20 cm = limit for MPE estimates) PG = EIRP Solving for S, the maximum power density 20 cm from the transmitting antenna is summarized in the following table: The power density does not exceed 1.0 mW/cm 2 at 20 cm; therefore, the exposure condition is compliant with FCC rules. The applicant’s radio, FCC ID: EJM-IMOTE1, is compliant with the requirements of 15.247(i).
