UNITED STATES REGULATORY APPROVAL FCC MODULAR APPROVAL (MA)
The requirements for FCC Modular Approval were released in June 2000 in the FCC’s Public
Notice: FCC Public Notice DA 00-1407, Part 15 Unlicensed Modular Transmitter Approvals.
Design Criteria for Modular Approval
General Conditions
The following conditions must be strictly adhered to for modular approval:
1. No modification to the module including the circuitry is permitted
2. The design criteria including antenna, interconnects and transmission line
3. Testing of the final device configuration for Digital Emissions Compliance
The UGWM1US may not be altered or modified in any way by the OEM or other integrator(s).
Additionally, no component(s) may be added which change the radio frequency (RF)
characteristics. These include unintentional or spurious emissions, immunity, ESD
characteristics, or other items commonly associated with RF devices. This includes all
components; passive and active (such as RF filters, RF amplifiers, RF switches, etc).
Additionally, no RF components may be placed between the RF output of the UGWM1US and
the antenna.
Antennae
The antenna is integrated in the module and has been qualified and approved for use under
the Modular Approval certification. This antenna is designed to be compatible with the RF
impedance and frequency range of the UGWM1US. This antenna may not be modified or
altered in any way from the original design as represented by the manufacturer.
The antenna selected have been specifically tested with the UGWM1US, and they are certified
through the regulatory agencies in the US, Canada, and European Union for authorized use.
Use of an altered antenna in a platform other than the antenna selected by Unigen voids the
MA grant for that platform.
Emissions Compliance Testing
Notwithstanding the Modular Approval for the Radio Device with associated antenna, the end
product configuration must meet digital emissions compliance and must be tested in
accordance with FCC Part 15 requirements confirming radiated emissions are within specified
limits.
