The channel bandwidth is the 20 dB bandwidth. The channel separation must be greater than the 20dB bandwidth. The minimum number of hopping channels is 15. The maximum channel dwell time is 0.4 seconds over the period of 0.4 seconds multiplied by the number of hopping channels. Pass Transmitter Output Power and EIRP, and Human RF Exposure FCC 15.247(b)(1, 4-5) The output power must not exceed 1 Watt (30 dBm) and 36 dBm EIRP. The human RF Exposure limit is 1 mW/cm 2 . Pass Radiated Spurious Emissions FCC 15.205, 15.209, 15.247(d) The spurious emissions must be attenuated below the level of the fundamental by at least 20 dBc. Emissions which fall in the restricted bands must meet the general limits of 15.209. Pass Band Edge Compliance FCC 15.215 The fundamental frequency must stay within the assigned frequency band. Pass AC Line-Conducted Emissions FCC 15.207 The AC line-conducted emissions must not exceed the limits of 15.207. Pass The channels selected for test were channels 0, 39, and 78. Channel 0: 2402 MHz Channel 39: 2441 MHz Channel 78: 2480 MHz Emissions Report for Astro-Med, Inc. on the AURA-PSG Base Station and Amplifier, Model AURA- PSG Report Number 3078319BOX.017a Page 5 of 29 3.0 Sample Calculations The field strength is calculated by adding the Antenna Factor and Cable Factor, and subtracting the Amplifier Gain (if any) from the measured reading. The basic equation with a sample calculation is as follows: FS = RA + AF + CF - AG Where FS = Field Strength in dBμV/m RA = Receiver Amplitude (including preamplifier) in dBμV CF = Cable Attenuation Factor in dB AF = Antenna Factor in dB AG = Amplifier Gain in dB In the following table(s), the reading shown on the data table reflects the preamplifier gain. An example for the calculations in the following table is as follows. Assume a receiver reading of 52.0 dBμV is obtained. The antenna factor of 7.4 dB and cable factor of 1.6 dB is added. The amplifier gain of 29 dB is subtracted, giving a field strength of 32 dBμV/m. This value in dBμV/m was converted to its corresponding level in μV/m. RA = 52.0 dBμV AF = 7.4 dB/m CF = 1.6 dB AG = 29.0 dB FS = 32 dBμV/m Level in μV/m = [10( 32 dBμV/m)/20] = 39.8 μV/m The following is how net line-conducted readings were determined: NF = RF + LF + CF + AF Where NF = Net Reading in dBμV RF = Reading from receiver in dBμV LF = LISN Correction Factor in dB CF = Cable Correction Factor in dB AF = Attenuator Loss Factor in dB To convert from dBμV to μV or mV the following was used: UF = 10 (NF / 20) where UF = Net Reading in μV Example: NF = RF + LF + CF + AF = 28.5 + 0.2 + 0.4 + 20.0 = 49.1 dBμV UF = 10 (48.1 dBμV / 20) = 254 μV/m Emissions Report for Astro-Med, Inc. on the AURA-PSG Base Station and Amplifier, Model AURA- PSG Report Number 3078319BOX.017a Page 6 of 29 3.1 Measurement Uncertainty Compliance of the product is based on the measured value. However, the measurement uncertainty is included for informational purposes. The expanded uncertainty (k = 2) for radiated emissions from 30 to 1000 MHz has been determined to be: ±3.5 dB at 10m, ±3.8 dB at 3m The expanded uncertainty (k = 2) for mains conducted emissions from 150 kHz to 30 MHz has been determined to be: ±2.6 dB The expanded uncertainty (k = 2) for telecom port conducted emissions from 150 kHz to 30 MHz has been determined to be: ±3.2 for ISN and voltage probe measurements ±3.1 for current probe measurements Emissions Report for Astro-Med, Inc.…
