2.3 GENERAL TEST PROCEDURES
Conducted Emissions
The EUT is placed on the turntable, which is 0.8 m above ground plane. According to the
requirements in Section 13.1.4.1 of ANSI C63.4: 2009 Conducted emissions from the EUT
measured in the frequency range between 0.15 MHz and 30MHz using CISPR Quasi-peak
and average detector modes.
Radiated Emissions
The EUT is placed on a turn table, which is 0.8 m above ground plane. The turntable shall
rotate 360 degrees to determine the position of maximum emission level. EUT is set 3m
away from the receiving antenna, which varied from 1m to 4m to find out the highest
emission. And also, each emission was to be maximized by changing the polarization of
receiving antenna both horizontal and vertical. In order to find out the maximum emissions,
exploratory radiated emission measurements were made according to the requirements in
Section 13.1.4.1 of ANSI C63.4: 2009

6.1 TEST SETUP
6.2 LIMITS
According to §15.247(a)(1), Frequency hopping systems shall have hopping channel carrier
frequencies separated by a minimum of 25 kHz or the 20 dB bandwidth of the hopping
channel, whichever is greater. Alternatively, frequency hopping systems operating in the
2400-2483.5 MHz band may have hopping channel carrier frequencies that are separated
by 25 kHz or two-thirds of the 20 dB bandwidth of the hopping channel, whichever is greater,
provided the systems operate with an output power no greater than 125 mW.
6.3 TEST PROCEDURE
Use the following spectrum analyzer settings:
Span = approximately 2 to 3 times the 6 dB or 20 dB bandwidth, centered on a channel
RBW ≥ 1% of the 6 dB or 20 dB bandwidth
VBW ≥ RBW
Sweep = auto
Detector function = peak
Trace = max hold
The EUT should be transmitting at its maximum data rate. Allow the trace to stabilize. Use
the marker-to-peak function to set the marker to the peak of the emission. Use the
marker-delta function to measure 6 dB or 20 dB down one side of the emission. Reset the
marker-delta function, and move the marker to the other side of the emission, until it is (as
close as possible to) even with the reference marker level. The marker-delta reading at this
point is the 6 dB or 20 dB bandwidth of the emission. If this value varies with different modes
of operation (e.g., data rate, modulation format, etc.), repeat this test for each variation.

of this section is based on the use of antennas with directional gains that do not exceed 6
dBi. Except as shown in paragraph (c) of this section, if transmitting antennas of
directional gain greater than 6 dBi are used, the conducted output power from the
intentional radiator shall be reduced below the stated values in paragraphs (b)(1), (b)(2),
and (b)(3) of this section, as appropriate, by the amount in dB that the directional gain of
the antenna exceeds 6 dBi.
8.3 TEST PROCEDURE
After a radio link has been established between EUT and Base station, the output power of
the cell signal of the testing equipment will be decreased until the output power of the EUT
reach a maximum value. Then the test data can be read at the tester screen. The loss
between RF output port of the EUT and the input port of the tester will be taken into
consideration.
The measurement will be conducted at three channels:
Bluetooth: Low(0), middle(39) and High (78),
Set the spectrum analyzer as RBW = 3MHz, VBW =3MHz, Span = 10MHz, Sweep=auto

11.3 TEST PROCEDURE
Radiated Emission ( 9 kHz 30 MHz) :
Spurious emissions from the EUT are measured in the frequency range of 9 kHz to 30 MHz
using a tuned receiver and a shielded loop antenna. The antenna was positioned 10 meters
horizontally from the EUT. Measurements have been made in all three orthogonal axes and
the shielded loop antenna was rotated to locate the maximum of the emissions. The
emission limits are based on measurements employing a CISPR quasi-peak detector except
for the frequency bands 9-90 kHz, 110-490 kHz.
Radiated Emission ( 30 MHz 1000 MHz) :
According to description of ANSI C63.4: 2009 sec.13.4, the preliminary radiated emissions
measurement were carried out. The preliminary radiated measurements were performed at
the measurement distance that specified for compliance to determine the emission
characteristics of the EUT. The EUT configuration (in X, Y and Z axis), cable configuration
and mode of operation were determined for producing the maximum level of emissions.
These configurations were used for the final radiated emissions measurements. The
measurement is carried out using a spectrum analyzer or receiver. The Quasi-peak detector
is used and RBW is set to 120kHz .The antenna height and turn table rotation is adjusted
until the maximum power value is founded on spectrum analyzer or receiver.

12.3 TEST PROCEDURE
According to description of ANSI C63.4: 2009 sec.13.3, the AC power line preliminary
conducted emissions measurements were carried out. The preliminary conducted
measurements were performed using the spectrum analyzer to observe the emission
characteristics of the EUT. The EUT configuration, cable configuration and mode of
operation were determined for producing the maximum level of emissions. These
configurations were used for final AC power line conducted emissions measurements.
The EUT is placed on a non-metallic table 0.8m above the horizontal metal reference
ground plane. The EUT is connected to LISN and LISN is connected to the reference
ground. All other supplemental devices are connected with EUT through other LISN. The
distance between EUT and LISN is 80cm. A radio link is established between EUT and the
tester. The output power of the EUT is controlled by the tester and driven to maximum
value. An initial pre-scan was performed on the live L line and neutral line with peak
detector (9kHz RBW ). Both average detector and qausi-peak detector are performed at
the frequencies with maximized peak emission.
Conducted emissions were invested over the frequency range from 0.15MHz to 30MHz
using a receiver bandwidth of 9kHz.
