Spurious Emission

Spurious emissions is covered under FCC 15.255D. Below the 40 Ghz, spurious emmision should meet the limit in the table below, For more details see FCC 15.209.

Between 40GHz and 200Ghz spurious emmisions should not exceed 90 pW/cm2 at a distance of 3 meters. In general the spurious emission should not exceed the level of the fundamental emission.
