Please note that further comments may arise in response to answers provided to the questions below. 1. In the frequency hopping algorithm explanation the operational description states, “When it does not have data to send, it outputs nothing.” Does this indicate that the transmitter does not transmit on any frequency or does it transmit a CW signal with no data. The later would not be allowed. Please explain. 2. Please provide a sample of the pseudo-random hopping sequence. 3. Please provide the name of the technical contact person on the 731. Dennis Ward mailto:[email protected] The items indicated above must be submitted before processing can continue on the above referenced application. Failure to provide the requested information may result in application termination. Correspondence should be considered part of the permanent submission and may be viewed from the Internet after a Grant of Equipment Authorization is issued. Please do not respond to this correspondence using the email reply button. In order for your response to be processed expeditiously, you must submit your documents through the AmericanTCB.com website. Also, please note that partial responses increase processing time and should not be submitted. Any questions about the content of this correspondence should be directed to the sender.

RE: Trimble Navigation FCC ID: JUP-48480-SNB900 1) In the frequency hopping algorithm explanation the operational description states, “When it does not have data to send, it outputs nothing.” Does this indicate that the transmitter does not transmit on any frequency or does it transmit a CW signal with no data? The later would not be allowed. Please explain. Response: The radio operates in a frequency-hopping, time slotted mode. In a particular time slot, if a radio has no data to transmit, it will not transmit on any frequency. At no time does the radio ever transmit a CW signal. 2) Please provide a sample of the pseudo-random hopping sequence. Response: The pseudo-random generator is made up of a three-stage maximal-length generator combined with a seven-stage maximal-length sequence generator. The output sequence repeats after 15748 symbols. The output of this generator is modded to provide a frequency out of the choice of 50 frequencies. The first 128 are: ( modulus 50 to get frequencies number 0-49 ) 2080 16656 34824 20804 27170 3345 16840 10340 17714 2201 33036 36934 37411 21073 19048 2420 8506 33885 12462 9815 34027 27152 3336 16836 10274 17681 2248 33124 36914 37401 21004 19014 2339 8529 33896 12532 9786 34013 28846 11863 9707 17589 26842 27152 3336 16836 10274 17681 2248 33124 36914 37401 21004 19014 2339 8529 33896 12532 9786 34013 28846 11863 9707 17589 26842 27152 3336 16836 10274 17681 2248 33124 36914 37401 21004 19014 2339 8529 33896 12532 9786 34013 28846 11863 9707 17589 26842 27152 3336 16836 10274 17681 2248 33124 36914 37401 21004 19014 2339 8529 33896 12532 9786 34013 28846 11863 9707 17589 26842 27152 3336 16836 10274 17681 2248 33124 36914 37401 21004 19014 2339 8529 33896 12532 9786 34013 28846 11863 3) Please provide the name of the technical contact person on the 731.

 Trimble Navigation Limited 645 North Mary Avenue Post Office Box 3642 Sunnyvale, CA 94088-3642 408.481.8000 Prediction of MPE at given distance for SNB900 Equation from Page 18 of OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01 S = PG / 4PiR 2 Where:S = power density P = power input to Antenna G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest relative to an isotropic radiator R = distance to the centre of radiation of the antenna The table below is excerpted from Table 1B of 47CFR 1.1310 titled Limits for maximum Permissible Exposure(MPE), Limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure Frequency Range (MHz)Power Density(mW/cm 2 ) Averaging Time (minutes) 300-1500f/150030 Where f = frequency in MHz We are using only a 0dBi or 5dBi gain antenna. Use 5dBi as worst case. Let us use prediction distance 21 cm. We will calculate at 915MHz, being the center of the band. Maximum peak output power at antenna input Terminal:30dBm Maximum peak output power at antenna input Terminal:1000mW Antenna gain (typical) :5dBi Maximum antenna gain:3.2 numeric Prediction distance:21cm Prediction frequency:915MHz MPE Limit for uncontrolled exposure at prediction freq:0.610mW/cm 2 Power density at prediction distance:0.577mW/cm 2 Conclusion: The power density levels at a distance of 21 cm with maximum antenna of 5dbi gain is below the maximum levels allows by the FCC regulations. The above calculation ignores the presence of the Bluetooth transmitter (FCC ID Q23104001) as the grant for this device indicates that the output power is so low that it does not have a significant contribution to the RF exposure hazard presented by the device.
