Director, FAU EMI R&D Laboratory Technical Report No. 07-112-x Page 1 of 9 Technical Report No. 07-112-x Page 2 of 9 1. INTRODUCTION This document is an addendum to Technical Report No. 07-112 which documents the FCC compliance results for the XG Technology, Inc.’s XG-VOIP-BTS with software revision FVXGBTS101107-A. The unit was evaluated for compliance to the FCC CFR-47, Part 15, Class A requirements as well as Section 15.247. This document reports the results for the calculated peak power and the power spectral density (PSD) as required per FCC CFR-47, Part 15, Section 15.247 following the measurement procedures described in the FCC document “Measurement of Digital Transmission Systems Operating under Section 15.247, March 2005,” and Agilent Technologies “Application Note 150-2.” The results apply only to the specific items of equipment, configurations and procedures supplied to the Florida Atlantic University EMI R&D Laboratory as reported in this document. 2. OBJECTIVE This evaluation was performed to verify conformance of the XG Technology, XG-VOIP-BTS module to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 47 - Telecommunication, FCC Part 15 Subpart C- Intentional Radiators, Section 15.247, “Operation within the bands 902-928 MHz” for conducted peak power and PSD measurements. 3. CONCLUSION The XG Technology, XG-VOIP-BTS unit met the FCC, Part 15 Subpart C- Intentional Radiators, Section 15.247, “Operation within the band of 902-928 MHz”, as described in the Technical Report No. 07-112 and this addendum. Technical Report No. 07-112-x Page 3 of 9 4. TEST PROCEDURES AND RESULTS 4.1 TEST PROCEDURES The measurement techniques identified in the measurement procedure of ANSI C63.4-2003 "American National Standard of Measurement of Radio-Noise Emissions from Low-Voltage Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the Range of 9 kHz to 40 GHz", as well as the FCC document “Measurement of Digital Transmission Systems Operating under Section 15.247 (March 2005),” were followed as close as practical during this evaluation. Note also that measurement methods defined by Agilent Technologies “Application Note 150-2” were also observed. Complete details and specific procedures used are discussed in the respective test result sections. 4.2 PULSE WIDTH AND REPETION FREQUENCY From Figure 1 provided by XG Technology, Inc., the pulse characteristics of the XG-VOIP-BTS are determined as follows: • Pulse width τ eff = 100 ns • Pulse repetition frequency, PRF = 1.66 MHz. The pulse desensitization factor α L can be computed as per Agilent Technologies “Application Note 150-2”, (page 8): () PRF effL ×=τα 10 log20 (1) () 69 10 1066.110100log20×××= − () 166.0log20 10 = dBdB6.15598.15−≈−= Figure 1: XG-VOIP-BTS pulse repetition frequency Note that the measurement data shown in Figure 16 of Technical Report 07-112, Section 4.3.2.2 (page 24) refers to the packet transmission rate. Technical Report No. 07-112-x Page 4 of 9 4.3 MAXIMUM OUTPUT POWER This section describes a corrective measurement data to Section 4.3.2.2 (page 24) of technical report 07-112. The maximum output power of the XG Technology XG-VOIP-BTS unit was measured using the HP 8566B spectrum analyzer (SA) on the peak detector mode, while the “bypass” instrument function of the HP 85650A Quasi-Peak Adapter was activated. The coaxial output port for the XG-VOIP-BTS antenna was connected to SA in series with a HP 8495B variable attenuator set to 40 dB. Since the 11 MHz 6-dB bandwidth of the signal exceeds SA IF bandwidth limit, the peak power was determined using the pulse desensitization technique defined in the Agilent Technologies “Application Note 150-2”. The spectrum analyzer was centered to the peak of the fundamental frequency (916.02 MHz). Figure 2 presents the measurement data with resolution bandwidth (B) and the frequency span set to 100 kHz and 40 MHz, respectively. In Figure 3, the frequency span was reduced to 0 Hz and the video trigger of SA was activated. Note that for both measurements, the resolution bandwidth met the Agilent Technologies “Application Note 150-2” (Equation 3) requirements for pulse desensitization using line spectra measurements: B = 100 kHz < 0.1 PRF.

It can be seen from the data above that the calculated maximum peak output power is 22.26 dBm, corresponding to 168.1 milliwatts, which is lower than the 1 watt limit. Hence, the device meets the maximum output power requirements as per Section 15.247. Technical Report No. 07-112-x Page …
