Type Acceptance Information for TS4000 Radio Modem with 3492 Transceiver Proposed FCC ID JWFTS4000D Teledesign Systems, Inc Confidential InformationPage 1 PURPOSE The purpose of this document is to provide information in support of type acceptance testing and report generation in pursuit of a Grant of Equipment Authorization under FCC Parts 15, 90 and 101 and Industry Canada RSS-119, RSS-210 and ICES-003 for Teledesign’s TS4000 Radio Modem. INTRODUCTION The TS4000 is a high-speed radio modem that consists of a modem board, radio transceiver board and metal enclosure. The radio transceiver board connects to the modem board with a flexible printed circuit. Radio Transceiver Board The radio transceiver board for this application is an E.F. Johnson DL3492. This device is being used without any modifications. The DL3492 has received FCC type acceptance with an FCC ID of ATH2423492-001. All circuit descriptions and details for the radio transceiver can be found in the type acceptance document for the DL3492. A copy of this has been included with this application. The radio transceiver is available in a frequency range from 928-960 MHz and includes a temperature stable reference oscillator with a frequency stability of ± 1.5 PPM. Modem Board The modem board provides the serial data interfaces that the user’s equipment interfaces to. The modem board also controls the operation of the radio transceiver. This control includes controlling the radio power and frequency and also controlling the modulation, data rate and frequency deviation of the transmit signal. Note that it is this transmit signal that defines the emission bandwidth and spectral efficiency. Radio Flex Circuit A flex circuit is used to interconnect the radio transceiver board to the modem board. This flex circuit is also used to interconnect the serial port 2 connector to the modem board. The J11 interconnecting diagram included with the modem board schematic provides the specific connections provided by the flex circuit for connecting the radio transceiver to the modem board. Configuration Software IBM compatible configuration software is used to control all aspects of configuration, tune up and test of the TS4000 radio modem.

The 4 level FSK modulation is provided to allow a high spectral efficiency for a given channel bandwidth. The GMSK modulations are provided in order to be compatible with other products and data communications standards. Channel Bandwidths: Our goal is to certify the TS4000 at two different channel bandwidths for Part 90: 20K0 and 11K2; and two different channel bandwidths for Part 101: 25K0 and 12K5. This is to allow the TS4000 to be setup for the most efficient operation for a given channel bandwidth that a user is licensed for. 4 Level FSK25K0F1D and 20K0F1D: Channel Baud Rate (B) = 32000 bps Modulation Frequency (M) = B (1/8) = 4000 Hz Peak Deviation = 6000 Hz Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (D) + 2 (M) Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (6000) + 2 (4000) Bandwidth Calculation = 12000 + 8000 Bandwidth Calculation = 20000 or 20K0 Type Acceptance Information for TS4000 Radio Modem with 3492 Transceiver Proposed FCC ID JWFTS4000D Teledesign Systems, Inc Confidential InformationPage 3 12K5F1D: Channel Baud Rate (B) = 16000 bps Modulation Frequency (M) = B (1/8) = 2000 Hz Peak Deviation = 4250 Hz Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (D) + 2 (M) Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (4250) + 2 (2000) Bandwidth Calculation = 8500 + 4000 Bandwidth Calculation = 12500 or 12K5 11K2F1D: Channel Baud Rate (B) = 15000 bps Modulation Frequency (M) = B (1/8) = 1875 Hz Peak Deviation = 3750 Hz Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (D) + 2 (M) Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (3750) + 2 (1875) Bandwidth Calculation = 7500 + 3750 Bandwidth Calculation = 11250 or 11K2 GMSK with BT = 0.320K0F1D: Channel Baud Rate (B) = 19200 bps Modulation Frequency (M) = B (1/3) = 6400 Hz Peak Deviation = 3600 Hz Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (D) + 2 (M) Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (3600) + 2 (6400) Bandwidth Calculation = 7200 + 12800 Bandwidth Calculation = 20000 or 20K0 11K2F1D: Channel Baud Rate (B) = 9600 bps Modulation Frequency (M) = B (1/3) = 3200 Hz Peak Deviation = 2400 Hz Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (D) + 2 (M) Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (2400) + 2 (3200) Bandwidth Calculation = 4800 + 6400 Bandwidth Calculation = 11200 or 11K2 GMSK with BT = 0.520K0F1D: Channel Baud Rate (B) = 14000 bps Modulation Frequency (M) = B (1/2) = 7000 Hz Peak Deviation = 3000 Hz Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (D) + 2 (M) Bandwidth Calculation = 2 (3000) + 2 (7000) Bandwidth Calculation = 6000 + 14000 Bandwidth Calculation = 20000 or 20K0 11K2F1D: Channel Baud Rate (B) = 7200 bps Modulation Frequency (M) = B (1/2) = 3600 Hz Peak Deviation = 2000 Hz Bandwidth Calculation…

Tested To Comply With FCC Standards FOR HOME OR OFFICE USE TS4000

Type Acceptance Information for TS4000 Radio Modem with 3492 Transceiver Proposed FCC ID JWFTS4000D Teledesign Systems, Inc Confidential InformationPage 1 OPERATION DESCRIPTION Radio Channel Programming and Switching Up to 99 radio channels can be pre-programmed into the modem board’s non-volatile memory with a PC based programming software. This software is only available to authorized dealers and service centers. The user can switch between pre-programmed channels by sending an ASCII control string through one of the modem board’s serial ports. The frequency of the radio transceiver is controlled by the microcontroller using the SPI port. This port directly controls the PLL (Phase Lock Loop) on the radio transceiver board. The microcontroller monitors the lock condition of this PLL using the lock detect signal from the radio transceiver. Radio Power Control The transmit power is adjustable from 0.1 to 5 watts. The actual value is adjustable by the end user using the TS4000 configuration software but can never be set over the maximum value of 5 watts. The modem board controls the radio power by setting the radio power DAC on the radio transceiver. This DAC is controlled through the radio transceiver’s SPI interface. The maximum value that this circuit can be set for is configured when the unit is tuned up. This prevents the user from setting the output power higher than the maximum allowed. Data Rate and Emission Masks The modulation data rate is controlled by the microcontroller using the clock circuitry (described above). The modulation data rate, combined with deviation, controls the occupied bandwidth of the transmitted signal. The allowed occupied bandwidth depends on the channel bandwidth and the corresponding emission mask of the signal. Please reference the emission designator calculations in the front of this document for the maximum modulation data rate and deviation allowed for each designated emission. The maximum modulation rate that a unit can operate at is configured by Teledesign Systems when a unit is tuned up. The TS4000 configuration software allows the user to adjust the modulation data rate but can never set it above the maximum value that is configured when the unit is tuned up. The deviation is controlled by the modem board based on the modulation data rate that the unit is set for. Spectral Efficiency This equipment is capable of supporting a minimum of 4800 bits per second per 6.25 kHz of channel bandwidth. This allows this equipment to support the latest FCC spectral efficiency requirements.
