Request for Waiver for Tank Level Probing Radars under Part 15 of the Commission’s Rules Ohmart/VEGA Corp., Request for Waiver of Section 15.205(a) of the Commission’s Rules to Permit Certification and Immediate Marketing of a Tank Level Probing Radar Operating in the Frequency Band 77-81 GHz ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ET Docket No. 10-23 RM-11352 ET Docket No. 06-216 ET Docket No. 07-96 NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULE MAKING AND ORDER Adopted: January 14, 2010Released: January 19,2010 Comment date: [Insert date 90 days after date of publication in the Federal Register] Reply Comment date: [Insert date 120 days after date of publication in the Federal Register] By the Commission: I.INTRODUCTION 1.In this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and Order (Notice), we propose to modify our rules to allow tank level probing radar (TLPR) devices to operate in the 77-81GHzfrequency band on an unlicensed basis under the provisions of Part 15 of the Commission’s rules. Specifically, we propose to modify Section 15.205 of the rules to remove the prohibition on intentional emissions in the 77-81GHz band for TLPR devices used in closed storage tanks and vessels made of metal, concrete, or material with similar attenuating characteristics, at fixed locations at petroleum and chemical production and storage facilities, and similar commercial and industrial sites. 1 We believe that our proposals herein will enable the development and deployment of high frequency technology that operates more effectively and reliably than existing tank level measuring radar technology in certain applications where precision measurements are needed, and in certain tanks which cannot now accommodate existing technology. We believe that, with appropriate restrictions, such high frequency TLPR devices can operate on an unlicensed basis without causing harmful interference to authorized services in the 77-81GHz band. 2.Additionally, we are waiving Section 15.205(a) of our rules, subject to certain conditions, to allow Siemens Milltronics Process Instruments Inc. (Siemens), Ohmart/VEGA Corp. 1 47 C.F.R. §§ 15.205. Federal Communications CommissionFCC 10-14 2 (Ohmart/VEGA), and any other responsible party marketing equipment that complies with these conditions (e.g., Endress+Hauser GmbH+Co. KG (Endress+Hauser)) to manufacture, certify, and market TLPR devices in the 77-81GHz band for a period of twoyears or until 180days following the adoption of a Report and Order in this proceeding, whichever is longer. This action will allow the new TLPR technology to be utilized in the near term while we consider modifying our general Part15 rules. II.BACKGROUND 3.TLPR devices are used to measure the amount of various materials contained in storage tanks or vessels. TLPR transmitters are typically mounted on the inside top of storage tanks, and emit radio frequency (RF) signals through an antenna aimed downwards to the surface of the substance contained in the tanks. The TLPR device measures or calculates the time delay between the transmitted signal and the reception of the return echo reflected off the surface of the material being measured to determine the material’s level. The radar beam typically bounces and is scattered inside the tank, and is eventually absorbed by the tank’s content or walls. In closed tanks made of metal or concrete material, the main emissions outside the tank typically result from the leakage of the escaping radar signal through the transmitter enclosure or through the mounting flange of the TLPR device. 2 However, if the tank is open when the radar is operating, the radar signal canescape through any opening. Further, if the tank enclosure is made of a material that does not significantly attenuate the radar signal, unintentional emissions would also escape through the tank’s walls and the radar enclosure. 3 However, at millimeter wave frequencies, 4 signal propagation loss is significant within a very short distance of the source. 5 4.Most short-range TLPR devices on the market currently operate at 6GHz, 8-10GHz, 24GHz or 26GHz. 6 TLPR devices that could operate at higher frequencies would use antennas employing narrower beam widths. Narrower beams would avoid extraneous objects located in close proximity to the desired target, such as agitators or filling pipes, thereby resulting in increased accuracy in target resolution. 7 High frequency TLPR devices would thus provide more precise measurements, reducing 2 See Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Short Range Devices (SRD); Equipment for Detection and Movement; Tanks Level Probing Radar (TLPR) operating in the frequency bands 5,8 GHz, 10 GHz, 25 GHz, 61 GHz and 77 GHz; Part 1: Technical characteristics and test methods, European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) European Norm (EN) 302 372-1 V1.1.1 (2006-04), (ETSI TLPR Technical Standard) at 30. 3 Id., at 30. ETSI found that the signal attenuation through a metal tank wall is 5 dB to 10 dB per micrometer thickness and the attenuated signal through a concrete tank wall, with or without reinforcement, is negligible because the thickness and natural moisture content of the concrete provide high attenuation at these frequencies. 4 The term “millimeter wave” is taken from the fact that the wavelength of radio signals for frequencies between 30 GHz and 300 GHz ranges from 10 millimeters down to 1 millimeter. 5 There is approximately 80 dB of free space attenuation at 3 meters for an 80 GHz signal. 6 Siemens, Krohne, SAAB Rosemount Tank Radar AB, etc., are FMCW radars manufacturers. Ohmart/VEGA, Endress+Hauser, Inc., Enraf B.V., etc., are pulsed radars manufacturers. See, e.g., Ohmart/VEG…

SITRAN LR560 choice of units for testing Frequency band of operation and Duty cycle The frequency band of operation is determined by the DDS and VCO circuits on the Technology board which is common to all 3 TLPR variants. These devices are programmed by the Main board processor. The processor, associated circuitry and relevant part of the software is common to the 2 main board variants (HART and Profi/FF), as is the part of the software stack that controls it. The Duty cycle is programmed onto the radar board by the Main board CPLD. The CPLD, associated circuitry and relevant part of the software is common to the two main board variants. As the main boards in the 3 TLPR variants have different communication ports the software load actually loaded onto the units has to be different to accommodate this, so these test are performed on all 3 variants. AC Mains conducted emissions None of the 3 units connect directly to ac mains and draw only a few mAfrom their DC supplies. Pre-testing during development showed that all unit passed conducted emissions with good margin and HART variant was chosen for mains conducted emissions test. Following on from testing to FCC 15.207 and 15.209 at RFI global, EMC testing was performed at Global EMC Inc to CISPR 11 and FCC 15.107. Results are presented in reports GEMC-61326-H-19966R3, GEMC-61326-PA-19966R3and GEMC-61326-FF- 19966R3which confirm that HART variant was worst dc port conducted emissions so was the variants chosen for ac mains conducted emissions. Radiated Emissions The TLPR housing is a single piece of deep-drawn stainless steel with an aperture at the bottom for the 78 GHz radar and a glass window at the top so that the display may be seen. Pre-testing during development had shown that the HART variant was worst case radiated emissions and so was the variant chosen for testing Following on from testing to FCC 15.207 and 15.209 at RFI global, radiated EMC testing was performed at Global EMC Inc to CISPR 11 and 15.109. Results are presented in reports GEMC-61326-H-19966R3, GEMC-61326-PA-19966R3and GEMC-61326-FF- 19966R3which confirm that HART variant was worst case radiated emissions.
