Greetings, Greetings to all, this is my first post to the list. My question deals with the Applicability paragraph of CE106. How does one apply the +/-5% non-applicability rule when the necessary bandwidth exceeds 10% of the fundamental frequency by a fair margin? Quoting the standard: "The transmit mode portion of this requirement is not applicable within the EUT necessary bandwidth and within ±5 percent of the fundamental frequency."
The case I am referring to is real. However, to prevent exposure of proprietary information, I will use a hypothetical example: An airborne synthetic aperture radar having a fixed nominal chirp bandwidth of 1500 MHz at a center frequency of 15 GHz, illuminates a designated area on the ground. The radar fly's by the area, capturing multiple images, each from different depression and squint angles. During the transit of the imaging path, the radar center frequency and chirp bandwidth are gradually shifted for the purpose of improving the image quality. The resulting envelope of occupied (chirp BW + center freq shift) is 2000 MHz.
