The information regarding calculations of the detailed design; PLL loop filter, impedance matching, VCO tank circuit etc. are described in the DESIGN DETAIL of the RF Radio and is available upon request. The module contains only a transmitter however the hardware is ready to install a future receiver. 1.0Context of Operation: The main purpose of this radio is to enable the locomotive engineer to remotely control the locomotive in the yard. The locomotive engineer is equipped with an operator control unit (OCU) and communicates with the locomotive directly or via a repeater unit (RPU) that is well located within the yard. Other purposes include any type of tele- operating system. The overall system must support many operators on the same frequency with different time slots (TDMA) in half duplex. The frequencies used are between 450-470 MHz and 806-870 MHz. The radio transmits at 9.6 Kbaud in a 12.5 KHz or 4.8 Kbaud in a 6.25 KHz channel spacing at a maximum power of 1 Watt.

Midgley EMC Engineering Manager COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORYTEST REPORT: 73-7209 FCC ID: OPQ2MOD-6322 Page 15 of 89 Exhibit 6 SECTION 1. Measurement Requirements 1.1 Introduction The following data is submitted for Certification of a RF modular radio for Canac Inc., in accordance with Part 2, Subpart J and Part 90, Subpart D of FCC Rules and Regulations. The 2MOD-6322-A411 was tested as a stand-alone, but the main application is to transmit data from a CANAC communication board (encoder board) installed in an enclosure (OCU) to remotely control locomotives. The 2MOD-6322-A411 is to be certified as a module; therefore, the following items are applicable: 1. The 2MOD-6322-A411 provides its own RF shielding and does not rely on the host system in which it is installed to provide shielding. 2. The 2MOD-6322-A411 provides buffered modulation and data inputs; therefore, the type of modulation or the data input rate does not affect the RF output power. (See theory of operation in Exhibit 12 section 2.1 3FSK Partial Response Modulator) 3. The 2MOD-6322-A411 can operate on 10.0 to 24.0 VDC provided by the encoder board; however, the 2MOD-6322-A411 provides its own power supply regulation that delivers 5.8 VDC and 5.2 VDC to the transmitter regardless of the input voltage. (See theory of operation in Exhibit 12 section 2.6 DC Power Supply) 4. The 2MOD-6322-A411 was tested as a stand-alone device connected to an interface jig to provide DC power and data input during the tests. (See Photos in Exhibits 7 and 9). 5. The 2MOD-6322-A411 is labeled with its own FCC ID number and compliance statement. When the 2MOD-6322-A411 is installed inside of a host system and the FCC ID number on the transmitter is not visibly from the outside, a separate label is provided for the outside of the host system listing the transmitters FCC ID number. (See labels in Exhibit 1). 6. RF exposure limits. (See Exhibit 11) This application is for the transmitter portion only; the digital portion was tested and complies with the Verification procedures according to FCC Part 15 Subpart B. COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORYTEST REPORT: 73-7209 FCC ID: OPQ2MOD-6322 Page 16 of 89 Exhibit 6 Shown below is a block diagram of the OCU. 1.2 Measurements Required for Certification § 2.1033 (c)(14) Measurement Data The measurement data that is required by § 2.1046 through § 2.1057 is included in Section 2 of this report. The data was measured in accordance with the procedures set out in § 2.1041. § 90.203 (j)(3) Spectrum Efficiency Application for part 90 certification of transmitters designed to operate on frequencies in the 150-174 and/or 421-512 MHz bands, received on or after February 14, 1997, must include a certification that the equipment meets a spectrum efficiency standard of one voice channel per 12.5 kHz of channel bandwidth. Additionally, if the equipment is capable of transmitting data, has transmitter output power greater than 500 mW, and has a channel bandwidth of more than 6.25 kHz, the equipment must be capable of supporting a minimum data rate of 4800 bits per second per 6.25 kHz of channel bandwidth. COMMUNICATION CERTIFICATION LABORATORYTEST REPORT: 73-7209 FCC ID: OPQ2MOD-6322 Page 17 of 89 Exhibit 6 § 2.1046 RF Power Output - § 90.205 § 2.1046 (a) For transmitters other than single sideband, independent sideband and controlled carrier radiotelephone, power output shall be measured at the RF output terminals when the transmitter is adjusted in accordance with the tune-up procedure to give the values of current and voltage on the circuit elements specified in § 2.983 (d)(5). § 90.205 Transmitter power shown on the radio station authorization is the maximum power the licensee is authorized to use. § 2.1047 Modulation Characteristics - § 90.211 The 2MOD-6322-A411 uses FM modulation via a 3FSK modulator by means of a direct digital synthesizer (DDS) and transmits non- voice information; therefore, this section does not apply. § 2.1049 Occupied Bandwidth - § 90.209 § 2.1049 The occupied bandwidth, that is the frequency bandwidth such that, below its lower and above its upper frequency limits, the mean powers radiated are each equal to 0.5 percent of the total mean power radiated by a given emission shall be measured under the following conditions: …
