5 Test Result
5.1 Antenna requirement
15.203 requirement
An intentional radiator shall be designed to ensure that no antenna other than that furnished by the responsible party shall be used with the device. The use of a permanently attached antenna or of an antenna that uses a unique coupling to the intentional radiator shall be considered sufficient to comply with the provisions of this section. The manufacturer may design the unit so that a broken antenna can be replaced by the user, but the use of a standard antenna jack or electrical connector is prohibited. This requirement does not apply to carrier current devices or to devices operated under the provisions of 15.211, 15.213, 15.217, 15.219, 15.221, or 15.236. Further, this requirement does not apply to intentional radiators that must be professionally installed, such as perimeter protection systems and some field disturbance sensors, or to other intentional radiators which, in accordance with 15.31(d), must be measured at the installation site. However, the installer shall be responsible for ensuring that the proper antenna is employed so that the limits in this part are not exceeded.

5.9 Conducted spurious emissions
5.9.1 Limits
In any 100 kHz bandwidth outside the frequency band in which the spread spectrum or digitally modulated intentional radiator is operating, the radio frequency power that is produced by the intentional radiator shall be at least 20 dB below that in the 100 kHz bandwidth within the band that contains the highest level of the desired power, based on either an RF conducted or a radiated measurement, provided the transmitter demonstrates compliance with the peak conducted power limits. If the transmitter complies with the conducted power limits based on the use of RMS averaging over a time interval, as permitted under paragraph (b)(3) of this section, the attenuation required under this paragraph shall be 30 dB instead of 20 dB. Attenuation below the general limits specified in §15.209(a) is not required. In addition, radiated emissions which fall in the restricted bands, as defined in §15.205(a), must also comply with the radiated emission limits specified in §15.209(a) (see §15.205(c)).

5.9.4 Test results
Notes: All modes of operation of the EUT were investigated, and only the worst-case results are reported. The worst-case mode: TX mode (GFSK).
Graphical Results Summary: The graphs show conducted spurious emissions for GFSK mode across various frequency ranges. All measured spurious emissions are significantly below the applicable limits.
5.10 Radiated spurious emission
5.10.1 Limits
§ 15.247 (d) In any 100 kHz bandwidth outside the frequency band in which the spread spectrum or digitally modulated intentional radiator is operating, the radio frequency power that is produced by the intentional radiator shall be at least 20 dB below that in the 100 kHz bandwidth within the band that contains the highest level of the desired power, based on either an RF conducted or a radiated measurement, provided the transmitter demonstrates compliance with the peak conducted power limits. If the transmitter complies with the conducted power limits based on the use of RMS averaging over a time interval, as permitted under paragraph (b)(3) of this section, the attenuation required under this paragraph shall be 30 dB instead of 20 dB. Attenuation below the general limits specified in § 15.209(a) is not required. In addition, radiated emissions which fall in the restricted bands, as defined in § 15.205(a), must also comply with the radiated emission limits specified in § 15.209(a) (see § 15.205(c)).
§ 15.209 Radiated emission limits; general requirements.
Frequency (MHz) | Field strength (microvolts/meter) | Measurement distance (meters) |
---|---|---|
0.009-0.490 | 2400/F(kHz) | 300 |
0.490-1.705 | 24000/F(kHz) | 30 |
1.705-30.0 | 30 | 30 |
30-88 | 100 | 3 |
88-216 | 150 | 3 |
216-960 | 200 | 3 |
Above 960 | 500 | 3 |
Note 1: the tighter limit applies at the band edges.
Note 2: the emission limits shown in the above table are based on measurements employing a CISPR quasi-peak detector except for the frequency bands 9-90 kHz, 110-490 kHz and above 1000 MHz. Radiated emission limits in these three bands are based on measurements employing an average detector.
§ 15.35 (b) requirements: When average radiated emission measurements are specified in this part, including average emission measurements below 1000 MHz, there also is a limit on the peak level of the radio frequency emissions. Unless otherwise specified, e.g., see §§ 15.250, 15.252, 15.253(d), 15.255, 15.256, and 15.509 through 15.519, the limit on peak radio frequency emissions is 20 dB above the maximum permitted average emission limit applicable to the equipment under test.
5.10.2 Test setup
Diagram Description:
Below 30MHz: The setup includes EUT & Support Units on a Turn Table (80cm height) above a Ground Plane. A Test Receiver is used. The distance is indicated as 3m.
30MHz~1GHz: The setup includes EUT & Support Units on a Turn Table (80cm height) above a Ground Plane. An Ant. Tower with a variable height (1-4m) is used, and a Test Receiver is connected. The distance is indicated as 3m.
Above 1GHz: The setup includes EUT & Support Units on a Turn Table (150cm height) above a Ground Plane. An Ant. Tower with a variable height (1-4m) is used, and a Spectrum analyzer with a Pre-amplifier is connected. The distance is indicated as 3m. Absorber material is shown.
5.10.3 Test procedure
- Test method: ANSI C63.10-2013 Section 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.10.
- The EUT is placed on an on-conducting table 0.8 meters above the ground plane for measurement below 1GHz, 1.5 meters above the ground plane for measurement above 1GHz.
- Emission blew 18 GHz were measured at a 3 meters test distance, above 18 GHz were measured at 1.5-meter test distance with the application of a distance correction factor.
- The frequency range of interest is monitored at a fixed antenna height and EUT azimuth. The EUT is rotated through 360 degrees to maximize emissions received. The antenna is scanned from 1 to 4 meters above the ground plane to further maximize the emission. Measurements are made with the antenna polarized in both the vertical and the horizontal positions.
KDB 558074 D01 15.247 Meas Guidance v05r02: The use of a duty cycle correction factor (DCCF) is permitted for calculating average radiated field strength emission levels for an FHSS device in 15.247. This DCCF can be applied when the unwanted emission limit is subject to an average field strength limit (e.g., within a Government Restricted band) and the conditions specified in Section 15.35(c) can be satisfied. The average radiated field strength is calculated by subtracting the DCCF from the maximum radiated field strength level as determined through measurement. The maximum radiated field strength level represents the worst-case (maximum amplitude) RMS measurement of the emission(s) during continuous transmission (i.e., not including any time intervals during which the transmitter is off or is transmitting at a reduced power level). It is also acceptable to apply the DCCF to a measurement performed with a peak detector instead of the specified RMS power averaging detector. Note that Section 15.35(c) specifies that the DCCF shall represent the worst-case (greatest duty cycle) over any 100 msec transmission period.
Test instrument setup
Frequency | Test receiver / Spectrum analyzer setting |
---|---|
9 kHz~150 kHz | Quasi Peak / RBW: 200 Hz |
150 kHz~ 30 MHz | Quasi Peak / RBW: 9 kHz |
30 MHz ~ 1 GHz | Quasi Peak / RBW: 120 kHz |
Above 1 GHz | Peak / RBW: 1 MHz, VBW: 3MHz, Peak detector AVG / RBW: 1 MHz, VBW: 1/T, Peak detector |
5.10.4 Test results
Notes:
The amplitude of spurious emissions which are attenuated more than 20 dB below the limits are not reported.
All modes of operation of the EUT were investigated, and only the worst-case results are reported.
There were no emissions found below 30MHz within 20dB of the limit.
Calculation formula:
Measurement (dBμV/m) = Reading Level (dBμV) + Correct Factor (dB/m)
Over (dB) = Measurement (dBμV/m) – Limit (dBuV/m)
