Functional summary
Overall radio summary
The Orthus radio is a dual band radio which can be configured to work at 2.4GHz or at 5.2GHz. The Orthus radio is
based on Atheros XB92 reference design that is a 2x2 MIMO supporting 1 and 2 spatial streams. There are only two
antennas for the radio. The Orthus radio is based on XB92 base band chipset AR9280 from Atheros with the radio
front end redesigned such that the radio will have better transmit power than the Atheros XB92 reference design.
The radio has two operation modes: 3.3V and 5.0V. In the 5.0V mode, the radio is designed to transmit more power
than the 3.3V in 2.4G band. More details are described later on in this document. The Orthus radio will be used in
three different AP products: MCN, NCAP, and high power NCAP (HP-NCAP).
The following section highlights a few modes of the radio:

Spectral flatness
The transmit spectral flatness will conform the 802.11n draft as specified in section 20.3.20.2.
In a 20 MHz channel and in corresponding 20 MHz transmission in a 40 MHz channel, the average energy of the
constellations in each of the spectral lines –16 to –1 and +1 to +16 shall deviate no more than ± 2 dB from their
average energy. The average energy of the constellations in each of the spectral lines –28 to –17 and +17 to +28
shall deviate no more than +2/–4 dB from the average energy of spectral lines –16 to –1 and +1 to +16.
In a 40 MHz transmission (excluding HT duplicate format and non-HT duplicate format) the average energy of the
constellations in each of the spectral lines –42 to –2 and +2 to +42 shall deviate no more than ± 2 dB from their
average energy. The average energy of the constellations in each of the spectral lines –43 to –58 and +43 to +58
shall deviate no more than +2/–4 dB from the average energy of spectral lines –42 to –2 and +2 to +42.
2.6.3
Transmit power range and accuracy
This radio will have an adjustable output power range from +4dBm to +28dBm in 0.5 dB step. Per Atheros radio
calibration procedure as well as per base band chipset design, this radio shall be designed to maintain an average
transmit power accuracy of +/-2dB per antenna.
The method for determining the average transmitted power accuracy is calculated as follows:
When the ideal transmitted power is set by software, the output RF power of the radio is measured simultaneously
by the MIMO Litepoint Iqnxn test set (or equivalent) for a given data rate on all channels, all frequency bands. The
actual measured output power is subtracted from the ideal settings to obtain the errors for each level. The errors at
each level are then averaged over all channels in the given band. This calculation shall be performed for each
transmit chain.
2.6.4
Transmit center frequency tolerance
The transmitter center frequency tolerance shall be ±20 ppm maximum.

Conducted transmit power
Due to the EVM and side-lobe requirements, the maximum transmit power will vary with data rates. The figures
below shows typical transmit power for each transmitted chain for both 2.4GHz and 5.2GHz operation. The transmit
power listed here are characterized based on EVM purpose only. The final AP transmit power depends on the result
of regulatory test for each country.
As mentioned in beginning of the document, the radio has two modes: 3.3V and 5.0V mode. The transmit power for
5.2G is the same in both modes whereas the transmit power for the 2.4G band is boosted. The two tables below lists
the difference.
The conducted transmit power is specified as the power measured at the Orthus radio connector and not at the
antenna chassis of the AP. Average transmit power is a number typically seen when measured on an arbitrary radio.
The conducted transmitted power is subject to vary as defined by transmit power variation specification in section

Adjacent channel rejection
The adjacent channel rejection is measured by setting the desired signal's strength 3 dB above the rate-dependent
sensitivity specified in the radio receiver minimum sensitivity, and raising the power of the interfering signal until
10% Packet Error Rate (PER) is caused for a PSDU length of 4096 bytes for 1000 packets. The power difference
between the interfering and the desired channel is the corresponding adjacent channel rejection. The interfering
signal in the adjacent channel shall be a conformant OFDM signal, unsynchronized with the signal in the channel
under test.
For more detail about the setup requirements, please read the 802.11n draft section 21.3.21.2

Receiver maximum input signal level
The receiver shall provide a maximum PER of 10% at an PSDU length of 1000 bytes for a maximum input level of
–10 dBm measured at the antenna for any baseband modulation.
2.7.5
Receive inter-modulation distortion
IEEE does not specify this value. However, the radio interception point will be measured, and calculated. The
receiver interception point should reflect an acceptable performance for normal usage of the Orthus AP.
2.7.6
Receiver channel power indicator (RCPI)
The receive channel power indicator also known as RSSI definition is described as follows. The RCPI indicator is a
measure of the received RF power in the selected channel. This parameter shall be a measure by the PHY sublayer
of the received RF power in the channel measured over the entire received frame. The received power shall be the
average over all receive chains. RCPI shall be a monotonically increasing, logarithmic function of the received
power level defined in dBm. The allowed values for the Received Channel Power Indicator (RCPI) parameter shall
be an 8 bit value in the range from 0 through 220, with indicated values rounded to the nearest 0.5 dB as follows:
— 0: Power not > -110 dBm
— 1: Power = -109.5 dBm
— 2: Power = -109.0 dBm
— and so on up to
— 220: Power not < 0 dBm
— 221-254: reserved
— 255: Measurement not available
where
RCPI = int{(Power in dBm +110)*2} for 0 dbm > Power > -110 dBm (21-76)
Accuracy for each measurement shall be +/- 5dB (95% confidence interval) within the specified dynamic range of
the receiver. The measurement shall assume a receiver noise equivalent bandwidth equal to the channel bandwidth
multiplied by 1.1.

Data rates and modes supported
Besides the legacy rates for 11 a/g, the following rates are supported. Specifically, MCS0 through MCS15 are
supported with both types of guard intervals (800ns, and 400ns). In combinations of 20MHz and 40MHz channel
bandwidth, there are multiple data rates possible. The figures below summarizes the modes in high throughput
modes.

RF exposure 20 cm statement
This device complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. In order to avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency
exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall not be less than 20cm during normal
operation.
Antenna Installation information
Reference antennas have been used during the approval process for the radio card.
Specific details of the reference antenna used for testing is detailed in the table below.
Important Note:
Use of an antenna which is the same ‘type’ (eg. Dipole) and has a gain equal to or less that
the reference antenna can be used without recertification.
Note: The Adapter cable must be considered as it is part of the system gain.
Use of an alternative antenna, different ‘type’ or same ‘type’ but higher gain will invalidate
the country approvals. Under this instant the system integrator is responsible for
re-evaluating the end product and obtaining separate approvals.
Part 15.21 user warning
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
Part 15.19 a 3
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Part 15.105 B
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiated radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The operating bands for the US are 2.4 GHz (2400 -2483.5 MHz) and 5 GHz (5150 - 5250
MHz) and (5725 -5850 MHz).
