9 Chapter 1. Introduction The SML2400 IP is a complete spread spectrum transceiver module, that operates in the license-free, 2.4 GHz ISM band. The spread spectrum technology in combination with an intelligent protocol ensures safe, robust and reliable transmissions. Especially in difficult or hostile environ- ments where interfering and reflective signals can occur, the SML2400 IP offers a solution where other products fail. The SML2400 IP is approved under ETSI and FCC and may be used worldwide. The SML2400 IP fea- tures the ability to change the system settings with AT-commands via RS- 232 port communication. This makes it possible to change both system and communication protocols instantly. Description The SML2400 IP consists of a black metal case with one connector, four LED indicators, a fixed antenna and an on/off switch. The LEDs indicate the different status of the SML2400 IP. On the bottom of the SML2400 IP is a RS-232 DB9 female connector. CHAPTER 1 Introduction 10 Figure 1. The SML2400 IP The product also contains: •a RS-232 male-female connector with an integrated power supply connector •a 220V – 9V DC power adapter (110V – 9V for the U.S.) •A CD-ROM containing the manual and the SML2400 IP Configuration Program System Indicators The SML2400 IP is equipped with four LEDs: 1. On: This LED turns off when the system powers down (Standby/Sleep). 2. Link: It indicates if a link is established in Secured Mode. 3. Tx: It indicates that data is being transmitted. 4. Rx: It indicates that data is being received.

LED Indicators Applications In many cases the SML2400 IP is used to connect a fixed device (PC, sen- sor, modem) to a portable device (PDA, laptop, remote control unit). Some sample applications for the SML2400 IP are: 1. Point to Point configuration 2. Remote control 3. Telemetry applications for sensors and indicators 4. Wireless NULL modem connection 5. Wireless baud rate converter The SML2400 IP is equipped with a number of factory templates. For connecting fixed devices to portable devices, you can use factory setting #2 (this is the default setting). This enables the portable device to com- municate with the PC using either the SML2400 IP Configuration Pro- gram or HyperTerminal. It gives you the opportunity to become familiar with the SML2400 IP and permits, for instance, the measuring of the cov- erage field by the signal quality at different locations. This can be done simply by walking around with a laptop and testing the quality of the PC link from various points.

Scope For the purpose of FCC type approval (FCC part 15, section 15.247(e)) the processing gain has been measured. Processing gain is defined as the difference in signal to noise ratio between the input and output of the demodulator. This difference can be measured by measuring the difference in signal to noise ratio with the despreading switched on and off. The theoretical processing gain of the SML2400IP is 11.7dB (10*Log(Codelength=15)). 2. Summary results The processing gain was found to be between 10.2dB and 12.7dB.

Description of test In FCC part 15, section 15.247(e) two measurement methods are described to measure the processing gain of the unit under test. For the measurement of the processing gain of the SML2400IP method (1) is used. “15.247(e) The processing gain of a direct sequence system shall be at least 10 dB. The processing gain represents the improvement to the received signal-to-noise ratio, after filtering to the information bandwidth, from the spreading/despreading function. The processing gain may be determined using one of the following methods: (1) As measured at the demodulated output of the receiver: the ratio in dB of the signal-to- noise ratio with the system spreading code turned off to the signal-to-noise ratio with the system spreading code turned on.” 3.1. Equipment list - Rohde Schwarz SMIQ03B signal generator with I/Q modulation inputs - Yokogawa FC300 arbitrary signal generator (used to modulate the SMIQ03B) - Rohde Schwarz FPS30 Spectrum Analyzer - Adcon SML2400IP unit 3.2. Test setup The SMIQ03B was modulated by the FC300 that generated the PN sequence. This combination served as a reference transmitter. The SML2400IP under test was set at a fixed AGC level. The output of the despreader was monitored with the spectrum analyzer. The measurements of this document were taken after the despreader, but before the digital filtering occurs. There’s no signal physically available to monitor after the digital filtering, so the unfiltered signal was measured in a bandwidth equal to the digital filtering bandwidth to include the effects of digital filtering (see later chapter “Justification of 250kHz measurement bandwidth”). The SML2400IP was setup in such a way that the despreading could be switched on and off. All measurements were carried out well above the noise floor of the used equipment.

Output spectrum of the reference transmitter 3.3. Justification of 250kHz measurement bandwidth As mentioned before, the measurements were carried out in a 250kHz bandwidth to include the effects of the digital filter. The following section describes why this is necessary. A received signal is multiplied by a reference (PN code) with the same code and (assuming that the transmitter’s code and the receiver’s code are synchronous) the carrier inversions transmitted are removed and the original carrier is restored. This narrow band restored carrier can then flow through the band pass filter designed to pass only the baseband-modulated carrier. Undesired signals are also treated in the same process of multiplication by the receiver’s reference, that…
