Project Number: 99ME45100Issue Date: December 8, 1999 File Number: NC3932 Model: FFPA-8689-60 FCC ID: MCD FFPA8689-60 Conducted and Radiated Spurious and Harmonic Emissions Measurements Test Procedure A CW signal at 880.9MHz as injected into the amplifier. The input was driven to produce maximum output power (60W). Conducted spurious and harmonic emissions were measured at the amplifier output between 30MHz and 10GHz. Also, from 1 to 10GHz, the radiated spurious and harmonic emissions were measured in a 10-meter anechoic chamber at a distance of 3 meters. Test Results All measurements of conducted and radiated spurious and harmonic emissions were greater than 60dB down from the amplitude of the fundamental frequency of the amplifier.

The signals were modulated with AMPS, TDMA, and CDMA. The input was adjusted to produce maximum output power (60W) from the amplifier. The frequency range from 30MHz to 10GHz was investigated for conducted spurious emissions. This measurement was performed to ensure that any out-of-band emissions produced by the intermodulation of the two injected frequencies were at least 60dB down from the fundamental. Results: No out of band emissions were found to be within 60dB of the injected frequencies.
