Methods of Measurement of the Electromagnetic and Operational Compatibility of UPCS Devices
47CFR15, Subpart D—Unlicensed PCS Devices, as of December 29 2004 ANSI test
Power spectral
density
15.319(d)
Power spectral density shall not exceed 3 milliwatts in any 3 kHz
bandwidth as measured with a spectrum analyzer having an RBW of 3
kHz.
6.1.5
Antenna gain 15.319(e)
The peak transmit power shall be reduced by the amount in decibels that
the maximum directional gain of the antenna exceeds 3 dBi.
4.3.1
Operational failure
requirement
15.319(f)
The device shall automatically discontinue transmission in case of either
absence of information to transmit or operational failure. These provisions
are not intended to preclude transmission of control and signaling
information or use of repetitive codes used by certain digital technologies
to complete frame or burst intervals.
Declaration with
explanation
Spurious emission 15.319(g)
Notwithstanding other technical requirements specified in this subpart,
attenuation of emissions below the general emission limits in
47CFR15.209 is not required.
6.1.6
Spurious emission
transition limits
15.319(h)
Where there is a transition between limits, the tighter Information limit
shall apply at the transition point.
Safety exposure
levels
15.319(i)
Unlicensed PCS devices are subject to the radiofrequency radiation
exposure requirements specified in §§1.1307(b), 2.1091 and 2.1093 of
this chapter, as appropriate. All equipment shall be considered to operate
in a “general population/uncontrolled” environment. Applications for
equipment authorization of devices operating under this section must
contain a statement confirming compliance with these requirements for
both fundamental emissions and unwanted emissions. Technical
information showing the basis for this statement must be submitted to the
Commission upon request.
Refer to IEEE
1528-2003
UPCS device 15.323
Specific requirements for devices operating in the UPCS band.
Emission
bandwidth and
power level
15.323(a)
Operation shall be contained within the 1920–1930 MHz band. The
emission bandwidth shall be less then 2.5 MHz. The power level shall be
as specified in 47CFR15.319(c), but in no event shall the emission
bandwidth be less than 50 kHz.
6.1.3 and 6.1.2
Channel packing 15.323(b)
[removed and reserved]
Listen before
transmit (LBT)
15.323(c)
Isochronous devices must incorporate a mechanism for monitoring the
time and spectrum windows that its transmission is intended to occupy.
