7.4 RF Exclusion Bands

RF Exclusion band is defined as the frequency band which is not subject to test or assessment. The following rules apply for Exclusion bands.

  • Whenever an exclusion band is applied, the specific frequency range(s) excluded from assessment should be detailed in the technical documentation.
  • Exclusion bands should not be applied when measuring transmitters in standby mode.
  • The frequencies on which the transmitter part of the EUT is intended to operate should be excluded from radiated emission measurements when performed in transmit mode of operation.
  • The exclusion band for immunity testing of equipment operating in the 2.4 GHz band should be:
    • Lower limit of exclusion band = lowest allocated band edge frequency -120 MHz, such as 2280 MHz;
    • Upper limit of exclusion band = highest allocated band edge frequency +120 MHz, such as 2603.5MHz
  • The exclusion band for immunity testing of equipment operating in the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band should be:
    • Lower limit of exclusion band = lowest allocated band edge frequency -270 MHz, such as 4880 MHz;
    • Upper limit of exclusion band = highest allocated band edge frequency +270 MHz, such as 5995MHz
  • The exclusion band for immunity testing of equipment operating in the 5.8 GHz band should be:
    • Lower limit of exclusion band = lowest allocated band edge frequency -270 MHz, such as 5445 MHz;
    • As the immunity requirements have an upper frequency range of 6 GHz and any upper edge exclusion band would be greater than this for the 5.8 GHz band. The above frequency should also be regarded as the upper end of the test range.
  • For channelized transmitter equipment the exclusion band should extend 250% of the channel width either side of the transmitter center frequency.
  • For non-channelized transmitter equipment the exclusion band should extend 250% of the occupied bandwidth either side of the transmitter center frequency.
  • There should be no frequency exclusion band applied to emission measurements of the receiver part of transceivers or the stand alone receiver under test, and/or associated ancillary equipment.
  • For channelized receiver equipment the exclusion band should be calculated using the following formulae:

    For the lower edge for the exclusion band:
    Equation 10. EXband(lower) = BandRx(lower) – nChWRx

    and for the upper edge of the exclusion band:

    Equation 11. EXband(upper) = BandRx(upper) + nChWRx

    Where,
    n = number of channel widths required for exclusion band.

    For equipment that supports multiple channel widths, the Channel Width used is the widest supported by the EUT.

  • For non-channelized receiver equipment the exclusion band should be calculated using the following formulae:

    For the lower edge for the exclusion band:
    Equation 12. EXband(lower) = BandRx(lower) – nBWRx

    and for the upper edge of the exclusion band:

    Equation 13. EXband(upper) = BandRx(upper) + nBWRx

    Where,
    n = number of channel widths required for exclusion band.
    Bandwidth of Receiver is the occupied bandwidth of the corresponding transmitter signal.
