2.1033(c)(14)/2.1046/87.131 - RF POWER OUTPUT
Test Conditions: System Interconnect The KHF 1050 System consists of a KRX 1053 Receiver
Exciter, a KPA 1052 Power Amplifier, a KAC 1052 Antenna Coupler, and an appropriate
ARINC 429 Controller (RM-855 or PS 440). For the purpose of a bench testing, these units are
interconnected via a KHF 1050 Breakout Box. The control and DC-power cables that interface
each unit to the KHF 1050 Breakout Box are approximately 1 m long. A double-shielded
coaxial cable (approximately 0.5 m long) interconnects the KRX 1053 and the KPA 1052. For
the purpose of the tests, a Signalcrafter power sensor is mounted to the transmitter output of the
KPA 1052. Depending on the nature of the test being conducted, a double shielded coax
approximately 1 m long carries the RF power from the power sensor to either a 54 dB power
attenuator or to the KAC 1052 antenna coupler. The antenna coupler is terminated with an
antenna-load. A DC-power-distribution box is used to supply 27.5VDC power to the KHF 1050
Breakout Box and to the controller.
System Operation
The ARINC-429 controller communicates the pilot-selected operating frequency and other
operating parameters to the KRX 1053 via the KHF 1050 Breakout Box. The operating
parameters of the KRX 1053 are returned to the controller via ARINC 429 to display to the pilot.
Modulation audio from the external audio oscillators is applied to the KHF 1050 Breakout Box,
where the tones are summed together and routed to the KRX 1053. At the KHF 1050 Breakout
Box, the audio level is monitored with a HP 8903B Audio Analyzer at a point that directly
connects to the microphone or data audio inputs of the KRX 1053. The audio levels are set to
typical operating values, unless specifically directed otherwise by the requirements of the test
being conducted.
The KRX 1053 communicates with the KAC 1052 via an RS-422 bus and discrete parallel lines.
Operating parameters such as operating-frequency band, transmitter power setting and mode of
operation is communicated along this RS-422 bus. Additionally, operating-status information of
the KAC 1052 and KPA 1052 is returned to the KRX 1053 via the RS-422 bus and parallel lines.
Another serial bus conveys band information and mode of operation from the KAC 1052 and
KPA 1052. In addition to the serial information, discrete parallel lines communicate control and
status information between these two units.
In the transmit mode of operation, the exciter signal output by the KRX 1053 is routed to the
KPA 1052 where it is amplified. The transmitter output at the KPA 1052 is monitored either
directly or routed through the KAC 1052, depending on the nature of the test being performed.
A computer connected to the RS-232 maintenance port of the KAC 1052 is used to effectively
disable the average power detector inside the KPA 1052 when testing voice modes of operation.
This raises the threshold of the average power detector from approximately 50 W to
approximately 100 W to ensure that the average-power detector in the KPA 1052 does not limit
the RF output power below that which is representative of normal voice operation. The average
power detector is active for data modes of operation.

Test Configuration
Modulation audio from the external audio oscillators is applied to the KHF 1050 Breakout Box
where the tones are summed together and routed to the KRX 1053 Mic input. At the KHF 1050
Breakout Box, the audio level is monitored with a HP 8903B Audio Analyzer at a point that
directly connects to the microphone or data audio inputs of the KRX 1053. The level of the
audio modulation is gradually adjusted, from near zero, upward while monitoring the RF output
power. Modulation limiting begins at the point where the output power ceases to increase.
From this point, the modulation level is reduced by approximately 6 dB and the modulation
frequency is swept from 50 Hz to 5000 Hz.
The power output during this test is monitored by a Peak Envelope Power meter. In cases where
the RF carrier is present along with the modulation, the power level of the modulation envelope
is monitored using a spectrum analyzer to ensure compliance to this part.

Test Configuration
The modulation signal input tones are selected based on modulation type. For J3E, and R3E,
there are two input tones at 400Hz and 1800Hz. For H3E, there is one tone at 1500Hz. In each
case, the audio input signal level is measured per tone with respect to a 775mV signal.
Modulation audio from the external audio oscillators is applied to the KHF 1050 Breakout Box
where the tones are summed together and routed to the KRX 1053 audio input. At the KHF
1050 Breakout Box, the audio level is monitored with a HP 8903B Audio Analyzer at a point
that directly connects to the microphone or data audio inputs of the KRX 1053. The level of the
audio modulation is gradually adjusted, from near zero, upward while monitoring and recording
the RF output power. Modulation limiting begins at the point where the output power ceases to
increase. For the modulation limiting test, the modulation level is increased by at least 10 dB
above the point of modulation limiting.
The power output during this test is monitored by a Peak Envelope Power meter.

2.1033(c)(14)/2.1053/87.139 - FIELD STRENGTH OF SPURIOUS RADIATION
Test Conditions: This data sheet will include J3E Low, Mid & High channel frequencies plus
Mid channel for J3D/J2D, R3E, HE3 & H3D/H2D as noted for each reading. EUT is
transmitting with modulation. The modulation input signal levels are set such that the power
output represents worst case. The frequency range investigated was 9 kHz to 3.0 GHz. No EUT
signals detected above 600 MHz at any transmit frequency or operation mode.
System Interconnect
The KHF 1050 System consists of a KRX 1053 Receiver Exciter, a KPA 1052 Power Amplifier,
a KAC 1052 Antenna Coupler, and an appropriate ARINC 429 Controller (PS 440). For the
purpose of a bench testing, these units are interconnected via a KHF 1050 Breakout Box. The
control and DC-power cables that interface each unit to the KHF 1050 Breakout Box are
approximately 1 m long. A double-shielded coaxial cable (approximately 0.5 m long)
interconnects the KRX 1053 and the KPA 1052. For the purpose of the tests, a Signalcrafter
power sensor is mounted to the transmitter output of the KPA 1052.
The RF power from the power sensor is routed to the KAC 1052 antenna coupler. The antenna
coupler is then terminated with a 54 dB attenuator. The attenuator output is routed to the
spectrum analyzer. A DC-power-distribution box is used to supply 27.5VDC power to the KHF
1050 Breakout Box and to the controller.
System Operation
The ARINC-429 controller communicates the pilot-selected operating frequency and other
operating parameters to the KRX 1053 via the KHF 1050 Breakout Box. The operating
parameters of the KRX 1053 are returned to the controller via ARINC 429 to display to the pilot.
Modulation audio from the external audio oscillators is applied to the KHF 1050 Breakout Box,
where the tones are summed together and routed to the KRX 1053. At the KHF 1050 Breakout
Box, the audio level is monitored with a HP 8903B Audio Analyzer at a point that directly
connects to the microphone or data audio inputs of the KRX 1053. The audio levels are set to
typical operating values, unless specifically directed otherwise by the requirements of the test
being conducted.
The KRX 1053 communicates with the KAC 1052 via an RS-422 bus and discrete parallel lines.
Operating parameters such as operating-frequency band, transmitter power setting and mode of
operation is communicated along this RS-422 bus. Additionally, operating-status information of
the KAC 1052 and KPA 1052 is returned to the KRX 1053 via the RS-422 bus and parallel lines.
Another serial bus conveys band information and mode of operation from the KAC 1052 and
KPA 1052. In addition to the serial information, discrete parallel lines communicate control and
status information between these two units.
Page 61 of 75
Report No.: FC03-009
In the transmit mode of operation, the exciter signal output by the KRX 1053 is routed to the
KPA 1052 where it is amplified. The transmitter output at the KPA 1052 is monitored either
directly or routed through the KAC 1052, depending on the nature of the test being performed.
A computer connected to the RS-232 maintenance port of the KAC 1052 is used to effectively
disable the average power detector inside the KPA 1052 when testing voice modes of operation.
This raises the threshold of the average power detector from approximately 50 W to
approximately 100 W to ensure that the average-power detector in the KPA 1052 does not limit
the RF output power below that which is representative of normal voice operation. The average
power detector is active for data modes of operation.

2.1091 – MPE CALCULATIONS
Due to the nature of this device, 50% would be a theoretical maximum duty cycle. If the EUT
operated at this duty cycle for a period exceeding 5 minutes, the device would become too hot
and begin reducing the power level to avoid over heating.
MPE Limit in accordance with 1.1310(b): Limits for general population/uncontrolled exposure
EIRP
PowerDensity(mW / cm 2 ) = Given: EIRP in mW and d in cm
4πd 2
Under normal operating conditions, the antenna used will be mounted near the leading edge of
the vertical stabilizer of an aircraft. As can be seen from the MPE results, at worse case this
device requires a separation of 54.03 cm to satisfy the limits specified in 1.1310(b) of the rules at
a PEAK power of 220W.
