A1101R09x – User’s Manual
Release Date 05/08/12
2.3.1. USA & Canada
Within the USA and Canada, the modules have been approved for use as digitally modulated
transmitters, for which they must have a minimum occupied bandwidth (6dB bandwidth) of
500kHz. In addition, the spectral density may not exceed 8dBm/3kHz and the total output power
including antenna gain may not exceed 1W.
Table 3
shows configurations that are compliant with
this use and the expected performance.
Table 3 FCC Approved configurations with max. allowed output power
In order to meet the band edge requirements, the center frequency of the operating channel has
to be chosen between
F
o
min
and
F
o
max
. Also, the power levels provided in
Table 3
are the max
allowed power levels for each configuration, however, the user is encouraged to use minimum
power required to establish a link in order to minimize interference. For available power levels
from the module, please refer to
Table 4
.
It is encouraged to use a medium access technique which should include addressing of
individual transceiver nodes; and should include a combination of a clear channel assessment,
transmit and detect, or a frequency hopping method. This ensures that the un-licensed band
can be shared with other systems/applications.
