On July 11th, 2018, after receiving suggestions from OCDs, laboratories, and the Manufacturers' Association (ABINEE) regarding radiated emission and immunity testing procedures, ANATEL opened a public consultation to gather contributions due to various divergences and understandings. Below is a concise summary of the recent contributions.
Contributions from Laboratories and OCDs:
EUT example:
- User environment with AC power supply (127V and 220V)
- 802.11a = 5.1GHz, 5.4GHz, and 5.8GHz with BW20 (3 configurations)
- 802.11n = 5.1GHz, 5.4GHz, and 5.8GHz with BW20 and BW40 (6 configurations)
- 802.11b = 2.4GHz (1 configuration)
- 802.11g = 2.4GHz (1 configuration)
- 802.11n = 2.4GHz in BW20 and BW40 (2 configurations)
- 802.11ac = 5.1GHz, 5.4GHz, and 5.8GHz with BW20, BW40, and BW80 (9 configurations)
- BT EDR = 2.4GHz (1 setting)
- Bluetooth LE - 2.4GHz (1 setting)
For radiated emission - Test according to the configurations below (3x):
- Setup 1: 2.4 GHz - 802.11 n 40
- Setup 2: 5 GHz - 802.11 ac 80
- Setup 3: 2.4GHz - BT EDR
For radiated emission - Test according to the configurations below (8x):
- Setup 1: 5 GHz - 802.11a
- Setup 2: 5 GHz - 802.11n BW40
- Setup 3: 5 GHz - 802.11ac BW80
- Setup 4: 2.4GHz - 802.11b
- Setup 5: 2.4GHz - 802.11g
- Setup 6: 2.4GHz - 802.11n BW40
- Setup 7: 2.4GHz - BT EDR
- Setup 8: 2.4GHz - BT LE
Contributions from ABINEE:
ABINEE disagrees with the above contributions, as it believes that test costs will increase by 100%. ABINEE suggests that all technologies should operate concurrently during radiated emission and immunity tests to reduce the number of setups.
For radiated emission - Test according to the configuration below (1x):
- Setup 1: 2.4 GHz 802.11 n 40 + 5 GHz 802.11 ac 80 + 2.4GHz BT EDR
For radiated emission - Test according to the configuration below (1x):
- Setup 1: 5 GHz 802.11a + 5 GHz 802.11n BW40 + 5 GHz 802.11ac BW80 + 2.4GHz 802.11b + 2.4GHz 802.11g + 2.4GHz 802.11n BW40 + 2.4GHz BT EDR + 2.4GHz BT LE
