PRODUCT INFORMATION
Equipment Description
The Equipment Under Test (EUT) is the Samsung Portable Handset FCC ID: A3LSMN935KOR. The data
found in this test report was taken with the EUT operating in Bluetooth low energy mode. While in low energy
mode, the Bluetooth transmitter hops pseudo-randomly between 40 channels, three of which are “advertising
channels”. When the transmitter is hopping only between the three advertising channels, the EUT does not fall
under the category of a “hopper” as defined in 15.247(a)(iii) which states that a “frequency hopping systems in
the 2400–2483.5 MHz band shall use at least 15 channels.” As operation on only the advertising channels
does not qualify the EUT as a hopper, the EUT is certified as a DTS device in this mode. The data found in
this report is representative of the device when it transmits on its advertising channels. Typical Bluetooth
operation is covered under the DSS report found with this application.
2.2
Device Capabilities
This device contains the following capabilities:
1900 GPRS/EDGE, 850/1900 WCDMA/HSPA, Multi-band LTE, 802.11b/g/n WLAN, 802.11a/n/ac UNII,
Bluetooth (1x, EDR, LE), NFC, ANT+
2.3
Test Configuration
The Samsung Portable Handset FCC ID: A3LSMN935KOR was tested per the guidance of KDB 558074 D01
v03r05. ANSI C63.10-2013 was used to reference the appropriate EUT setup for radiated spurious emissions
testing and AC line conducted testing. See Sections 3.2 for AC line conducted emissions test setups, 3.3 for
radiated emissions test setups, and 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 for antenna port conducted emissions test
setups.
This device supports wireless charging capability and, thus, is subject to the test requirements of KDB 648474
D03 v01r04. Additional radiated spurious emission measurements were performed with the EUT lying flat on a
certified wireless charging pad (WCP) while operating under normal conditions in a simulated call or data
transmission configuration. The worst case radiated emissions data is shown in this report.

AC Line Conducted Emissions
The line-conducted facility is located inside a 10'x16'x9' shielded enclosure. The shielded enclosure is
manufactured by ETS Lindgren RF Enclosures. The shielding effectiveness of the shielded room is in
accordance with MIL-Std-285 or NSA 65-5. A 1m x 1.5m wooden table 80cm high is placed 40cm away from
the vertical wall and 80cm away from the sidewall of the shielded room. Two 10kHz-30MHz, 50/50H LineImpedance Stabilization Networks (LISNs) are bonded to the shielded room floor. Power to the LISNs is
filtered by external high-current high-insertion loss power line filters. The external power line filter is an ETS
Lindgren Model LPRX-4X30 (100dB Attenuation, 14kHz-18GHz) and the two EMI/RFI filters are ETS Lindgren
Model LRW-2030-S1 (100dB Minimum Insertion Loss, 14kHz – 10GHz). These filters attenuate ambient signal
noise from entering the measurement lines. These filters are also bonded to the shielded enclosure.
The EUT is powered from one LISN and the support equipment is powered from the second LISN. If the EUT
is a DC-powered device, power will be derived from the source power supply it normally will be powered from
and this supply line(s) will be connected to the second LISN. All interconnecting cables more than 1 meter
were shortened to a 1 meter length by non-inductive bundling (serpentine fashion) and draped over the back
edge of the test table. All cables were at least 40cm above the horizontal reference groundplane. Power
cables for support equipment were routed down to the second LISN while ensuring that that cables were not
draped over the second LISN.
Sufficient time for the EUT, support equipment, and test equipment was allowed in order for them to warm up
to their normal operating condition. The RF output of the LISN was connected to the spectrum analyzer and
exploratory measurements were made to determine the frequencies producing the maximum emission from
the EUT. The spectrum was scanned from 150kHz to 30MHz with a spectrum analyzer. The detector function
was set to peak mode for exploratory measurements while the bandwidth of the analyzer was set to 10kHz.
The EUT, support equipment, and interconnecting cables were arranged and manipulated to maximize each
emission. Once the worst case emissions have been identified, the one EUT cable configuration/arrangement
and mode of operation that produced these emissions is used for final measurements on the same test site.
The analyzer is set to CISPR quasi-peak and average detectors with a 9kHz resolution bandwidth for final
measurements.
Line conducted emissions test results are shown in Section 7.9. The EMI Receiver mode of the Agilent MXE
was used to perform AC line conducted emissions testing.

Radiated Emissions
The radiated test facilities consisted of an indoor 3 meter semi-anechoic chamber used for final measurements
and exploratory measurements, when necessary. The measurement area is contained within the semianechoic chamber which is shielded from any ambient interference. The test site inside the chamber is a 6m x
5.2m elliptical, obstruction-free area in accordance with Figure 5.7 of Clause 5 in ANSI C63.4-2014. A raised
turntable is used for radiated measurement. It is a continuously rotatable, remote-controlled, metallic turntable
and 2 meters (6.56 ft.) in diameter. The turn table is flush with the raised floor of the chamber in order to
maintain its function as a ground plane. Absorbers are arranged on the floor between the turn table and the
antenna mast in such a way so as to maximize the reduction of reflections for measurements above 1GHz. A
72.4cm high PVC support structure is placed on top of the turntable. A 3” (~7.6cm) sheet of high density
polystyrene is used as the table top and is placed on top of the PVC supports to bring the total height of the
table to 80cm. For measurements above 1GHz, a high density expanded polystyrene block is placed on top of
the test table to bring the total table height to 1.5m.
For all measurements, the spectrum was scanned through all EUT azimuths and from 1 to 4 meter receive
antenna height using a broadband antenna from 30MHz up to the upper frequency shown in 15.33(b)(1)
depending on the highest frequency generated or used in the device or on which the device operates or tunes.
For frequencies above 1GHz, linearly polarized double ridge horn antennas were used. For frequencies below
30MHz, a calibrated loop antenna was used. When exploratory measurements were necessary, they were
performed at 1 meter test distance inside the semi-anechoic chamber using broadband antennas, broadband
amplifiers, and spectrum analyzers to determine the frequencies and modes producing the maximum
emissions. Sufficient time for the EUT, support equipment, and test equipment was allowed in order for them
to warm up to their normal operating condition. The test set-up was placed on top of the 1 x 1.5 meter table.
The EUT, support equipment, and interconnecting cables were arranged and manipulated to maximize each
emission. Appropriate precaution was taken to ensure that all emissions from the EUT were maximized and
investigated. The system configuration, mode of operation, turntable azimuth, and receive antenna height was
noted for each frequency found.
Final measurements were made in the semi-anechoic chamber using calibrated, linearly polarized broadband
and horn antennas. The test setup was configured to the setup that produced the worst case emissions. The
spectrum analyzer was set to investigate all frequencies required for testing to compare the highest radiated
disturbances with respect to the specified limits. The turntable containing the EUT was rotated through 360
degrees and the height of the receive antenna was varied 1 to 4 meters and stopped at the azimuth and height
producing the maximum emission. Each emission was maximized by changing the orientation of the EUT
through three orthogonal planes and changing the polarity of the receive antenna, whichever produced the
worst-case emissions.

Environmental Conditions
The temperature is controlled within range of 15oC to 35oC. The relative humidity is controlled within range of
10% to 75%. The atmospheric pressure is monitored within the range 86-106kPa (860-1060mbar).

1. RBW was set to 1MHz rather than 100kHz in order to increase the measurement speed.
2. The display line shown in the following plots denotes the limit at 20dB below the fundamental emission
level measured in a 100kHz bandwidth. However, since the traces in the following plots are measured
with a 1MHz RBW, the display line may not necessarily appear to be 20dB below the level of the
fundamental in a 1MHz bandwidth.
3. For plots showing conducted spurious emissions near the limit, the frequencies were investigated with
a reduced RBW to ensure that no emissions were present.

Test Notes
1. The optional test procedures for antenna port conducted measurements of unwanted emissions per
the guidance of KDB 558074 D01 v03r05 were not used to evaluate this device for compliance to
radiated limits. All radiated spurious emissions levels were measured in a radiated test setup.
2. All emissions lying in restricted bands specified in §15.205 are below the limit shown in Table 7-5.
3. The antenna is manipulated through typical positions, polarity and length during the tests. The EUT is
manipulated through three orthogonal planes.
4. This unit was tested with its standard battery.
5. The spectrum is measured from 9kHz to the 10th harmonic of the fundamental frequency of the
transmitter using CISPR quasi peak detector below 1GHz. Above 1 GHz, average and peak
measurements were taken using linearly polarized horn antennas. The worst-case emissions are
reported however emissions whose levels were not within 20dB of the respective limits were not
reported.
6. Average measurements were recorded using a VBW of 3kHz, per Section 12.2.5.3 of KDB 558074
D01 v03r05, since 1/T is equal to just under 3kHz. This method was used because the EUT could not
be configured to operate with a duty cycle > 98%. Both average and peak measurements were made
using a peak detector
7. Emissions below 18GHz were measured at a 3 meter test distance while emissions above 18GHz
were measured at a 1 meter test distance with the application of a distance correction factor.
8. No significant radiated band edge emissions were found in the 2310 – 2390MHz restricted band.
9. The "-" shown in the following RSE tables are used to denote a noise floor measurement.
Sample Calculations
Determining Spurious Emissions Levels
Field Strength Level [dBV/m] = Analyzer Level [dBm] + 107 + AFCL [dB/m]
AFCL [dB/m] = Antenna Factor [dB/m] + Cable Loss [dB]
Margin [dB] = Field Strength Level [dBV/m] – Limit [dBV/m]
Radiated Band Edge Measurement Offset
The amplitude offset shown in the radiated restricted band edge plots in Section 7.7 was
calculated using the formula:
Offset (dB) = (Antenna Factor + Cable Loss + 10 dB Attenuator) – Preamplifier Gain

Line-Conducted Test Data
§15.207
Test Overview and Limit
All AC line conducted spurious emissions are measured with a receiver connected to a grounded LISN while
the EUT is operating at its maximum duty cycle, at maximum power, and at the appropriate frequencies. All
data rates and modes were investigated for conducted spurious emissions. Only the conducted emissions of
the configuration that produced the worst case emissions are reported in this section.
All conducted emissions must not exceed the limits shown in the table below, per 15.207.

Test Setup
The EUT and measurement equipment were set up as shown in the diagram below.
Figure 7-7. Test Instrument & Measurement Setup
Test Notes
1.
All modes of operation were investigated and the worst-case emissions are reported using mid channel.
The emissions found were not affected by the choice of channel used during testing.
2.
The limit for an intentional radiator from 150kHz to 30MHz are specified in RSS-Gen (8.8).
3.
Corr. (dB) = Cable loss (dB) + LISN insertion factor (dB)
4.
QP/AV Level (dBV) = QP/AV Analyzer/Receiver Level (dBV) + Corr. (dB)
5.
Margin (dB) = QP/AV Limit (dBV) - QP/AV Level (dBV)
6.
Traces shown in plot are made using a peak detector.
7.
Deviations to the Specifications: None.
