RF Only Monitoring System Introduction This specification represents the technical description of the RF Only Monitoring System Project. The design must conform to current technology standards and utilize components with standard 8-16 week vendor delivery lead times. The system must be efficient to manufacture with a minimum of technical overhead required. The remainder of this document describes the RF Only Monitoring System up to host protocol. The Host Monitoring Service software will not be described in this document. 2. RF Only Monitoring System General Description The RF Only Monitoring System product is a desktop unit and RF transmitter specifically designed for monitoring a client’s movement in and out of a defined area. The RF Only Monitoring System is designed to electronically collect the client movement as well as the system statuses. The RF Only Monitoring System contains multiple microcontrollers which perform the participant tracking, automatic system diagnostics and event reporting. The RF Only Monitoring System consists of two major components, the Monitor Unit and the Transmitter Unit. The Monitor Unit will store and automatically report the presence or absence of the individual by virtue of an RF (radio frequency) link between the Monitor Unit and the Transmitter Unit. The RF Only Monitoring System is designed to detect if system maintenance is needed or client has tampered with the unit. This information, stored in the RF Only Monitoring System, will be made available to a Host Monitoring Service via connection over a standard telephone line. Information to and from the RF Only Monitoring System is uploaded and downloaded through modem communication over the standard telephone line in a client’s home. While the client is at home, the Monitor Unit continually supervises the confinement of the client. The Transmitter Unit, which is worn by the user, regularly transmits a unique identifier sequence for the client. The Transmitter signal is designed to discourage duplication or tracing. The Transmitter Unit is hardened, watertight and is expected to survive the harsh environment associated with securing upon the client’s extremity. Yet the unit is comfortable enough to be worn for a year or more. The RF Only Monitor System product will be low-cost. The target cost for the Monitor and Transmitter Units is $400 in large quantities. ---- KBS CONFIDENTIAL ---- KBS Incorporated RF Only Monitoring System Project RFOnlsp4.doc77/16/01 3.

TSC 002 Transmitter to FCC "B" Radiated Emission Requirements" Performed: 26 August 1998 Customer: KBS Inc. Attn: Thomas Peteric 1498 NW 3rd. Street Deerfield Beach, Florida 33442 Company Official responsible for product(s) tested: _____________________________ Thomas Peteric Tel. (954) 360-7200 ext 284 Performed by: Patrick D. Satchell Reported by: _______________________________ Patrick D. Satchell FAU EMI R & D Laboratory Approved by: ________________________________ Vichate Ungvichian ,Ph.D., P.E. Director, FAU EMI R & D Laboratory KBS, Inc. Technical Report 98-058 1. INTRODUCTION The KBS, Inc. Technical Report 98-058 2 The KBS, Inc.TSC 002 Transmitter operating at 314 MHz was evaluated and the duty cycle was given as 21% ( 0.021/0.1). The Average value was calculated by using the formulae indicated on Pages 4 and 5 of this report. The results reported in this 7 page document apply only to the specific items of equipment, configurations, and procedures supplied to the Florida Atlantic University EMI Research Laboratory by The Audio Group, Inc. under the test conditions listed herein. 2. OBJECTIVE This evaluation was performed to verify conformance of the TSC 002 Transmitter with reference to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 47 - Telecommunication, Part 15 - Radio Frequency Devices, Subpart C - Intentional Radiators, Section 15.231 Periodic operation in the band 40.66-40.70 MHz and above 70 MHz. 3. CONCLUSION The KBS, Inc. TSC 002 Transmitter met the FCC Class "B" radiated requirements as described in the following pages. 4. TEST PROCEDURES AND RESULTS 4.1 TEST PROCEDURES The measurement techniques identified in measurement procedure ANSI C63.4-1992 "American National Standard of Measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 9kHz to 40 GHz" were followed as close as practical during this evaluation. Complete details and specific procedures used in this evaluation are discussed in the Tests Results section. It should be noted that The KBS, Inc. had discussed this device with FCC personnel (Mr. Tom Phillips) as indicated in page 7 of this report. The calculated average value was lower than the peak value due to the duty cycle as indicated in Pages 4 and 5 of this report. The KBS, Inc. Technical Report 98-058 3 4.2 TEST RESULTS 4.2.1 RADIATED EMISSIONS The KBS TSC 002 Transmitter unit was placed on the wooden table 80 centimeters above the ground plane floor of the FCC listed Semi-Anechoic test site. Photographs 1 and 2 show the physical configuration that produced the worst case emissions from the unit. For the fundamental (314 MHz) frequency, an EMCO 1385 Log Periodic Antenna was position 3 meters from the unit. the received signal was fed directly to the HP 8566B Spectrum Analyzer. The analyzer was operated with a resolution video bandwidth of 1 MHz through the HP 8650A Quasi Peak Adapter that was in normal mode. For second and third harmonic (628 MHz and 942 MHz) frequencies, an EMCO 3185 Log Periodic Antenna was positioned 3 meters from the unit. The received signal was fed through an HP 8447D Amplifier and displayed on the HP 8566B Spectrum Analyzer. The analyzer was operated with a resolution and video bandwidth of 1 MHz through the HP 85650A Quasi Peak Adapter that was in normal mode. The Spectrum Analyzer was operated in the "peak" detector mode at all times with 'Trace A' in 'Max Hold' and 'Trace B' in 'Clear Write'. The turntable was then rotated 360 degrees and the antenna scanned in height from 1 to 4 meters until the maximum emission level was observed. This procedure was repeated with the antenna in both the horizontal and vertical polarizations and with the "TSC 002 Transmitter" unit in the two orthogonal axis orientations. For spurious (harmonic) emission frequencies above 1 GHz, an EMCO 3115 Double Ridged Guide Antenna was positioned 3 meters from the unit. The received signal was fed through an HP 83017A Amplifier and a low loss heliax cable to the HP 8566B Spectrum Analyzer. The spectrum analyzer was operated with a resolution bandwidth of 1 MHz and video bandwidth on Auto in the "peak" detector mode with 'Trace A' in 'Max Hold' and 'Trace B' in 'Clear Write'. The turntable was again rotated and the antenna scanned in height for the maximum emission level in both horizontal and vertical polarizations with the "TSC 002 Transmitter" unit oriented in the two orthogonal axis positions. Tables 1 and 2 show the antenna induced voltage (dBuV) at the spectrum analyzer with the respective cable loss (dB), amplifier gain (dB), and antenna factors (dB) used to determine the field intensity (dBuV/m and uV/m) level at each frequency for both antenna polarizations and unit positions.
