According to §15.407, 26dB Bandwidth should be shown. Measurement Procedure 1. Check the calibration of the measuring instrument using either an internal calibrator or a known signal from an external generator. 2. Position the EUT without connection to measurement instrument. Turn on the EUT and connect it to measurement instrument. Then set it to any one convenient frequency within its operating range. Set a reference level on the measuring instrument equal to the highest peak value. 3. Measure the frequency difference of two frequencies that were attenuated 6 dB from the reference level. Record the frequency difference as the emission bandwidth. (6 dB bandwidth for DTS) 4. Same as (3) except 26 dB. (26dB bandwidth for UNII) 5. Repeat above procedures until all frequencies measured were complete.
