Application note
Using the SPIRIT1 transceiver under ARIB STD-T108 in the 920 MHz band
By Placido De Vita
Introduction
SPIRIT1 is a very low power RF transceiver, intended for RF wireless applications in the sub-1 GHz band. It is designed to operate both in the license-free ISM and SRD frequency bands at 169, 315, 433, 868, 915 and 920 MHz.
The Japanese Association of Radio Industries and Businesses (ARIB) was established in response to several trends such as the growing internationalization of telecommunications, the convergence of telecommunications and broadcasting and the need for promotion of radio-related industries. The ARIB organism defines the basic technical requirements for standard specifications of radio equipment.
This application note outlines the expected performance when using the Spirit1 under ARIB STD-T108 (see References on page 33) in the 920 MHz band. For details on the regulatory limits in the 920 MHz frequency band, please refer to the ARIB STD-T108 regulation in

An overview of ARIB STD-T108 regulation |
|
|
Radio equipment defined in this standard utilizes 915 to 930 MHz bandwidth. The ARIB STD-T108 defines two different types of possible categories of application:
2.Low-power radio stations
A short description of the two different categories is given in the following sections. The main difference concerns the output power and band frequency used.
1.1Convenience radio stations
Devices that operate in convenience radio stations will work in using either a simplex, duplex, or semi-duplex broadcast method. The contents of communications are primarily the signals for telemetry, telecontrol and data transmission systems. The operating frequency band is between 920.5 MHz and 923.5 MHz. The maximum permitted antenna power is 250 mW (+24 dBm on a 50 ohm load, +27 dBm EIRP considering an antenna of 3 dBi gain). A radio channel consists of up to 5 consecutive unit radio channels which are defined such that their center frequency is located from 920.6 MHz to 923.4 MHz with 200 kHz separation and a bandwidth of 200 kHz. There aren't specific requirements for the modulation method, while the permissible value for occupied bandwidth is (200 x n) kHz or less, where n is the number of unit radio channels constituting the entire radio channel and is an integer from 1 to 5.
An adjacent channel leakage power is permitted: two different channel masks are defined, one for systems that work in the 920.5 MHz to 922.3 MHz band and a second one for the systems that work in the 922.3 to 923.5 MHz band. For the two different masks refer to the figures 3-1 and 3-2 of the ARIB STD-T108 regulation cited in References on page 33.
For the transmitter a permissible value for unwanted emission intensity is defined (see
Table 1).
For the receiver a limit for the secondary radiated emissions is defined (see Table 2).

1.2Low-power radio stations
Low-power radio stations differ from convenience radio stations in output power and usable frequency band.
Regarding the output power, two different values are permitted as follows.
●An output power of 1 mW (0 dBm on a 50 ohm load, +3 dBm EIRP considering an antenna of 3 dBi gain) is permitted in the band greater than or equal to 915.9 MHz to less than or equal to 916.9 MHz , and greater than or equal to 920.5 MHz and less than or equal to 929.7 MHz.
●An output power of 20 mW (+13 dBm on a 50 ohm load, +16 dBm EIRP considering an antenna of 3 dBi gain) is permitted in the band greater than or equal to 920.5 MHz to less than or equal to 928.1 MHz.
As for convenience radio stations, an entire radio channel consists of up to 5 consecutive unit radio channels which are defined such that their center frequency is located from 916.0 MHz to 916.8 MHz and from 920.6 MHz to 928.0 MHz with 200 kHz separation and a bandwidth of 200 kHz, or which are defined such that their center frequency is located from 928.15 MHz to 929.65 MHz with 100 kHz separation and a bandwidth of 100 kHz. There aren't specific requirements for the modulation method, while the permissible value for the occupied bandwidth is (200 x n) kHz or less, where n is the number of unit radio channels constituting the entire radio channel and is an integer from 1 to 5. In the case that the center frequency is from 928.15 MHz to 929.65 MHz, it shall be (100 x n) kHz or less.
An adjacent channel leakage power is permitted: five different channel masks are defined, functions of the usable bandwidth and of the output power. For the five different masks refer to the figures 3-1 to 3-5 of the ARIB STD-T108 regulation, see References on page 33.
For the transmitter a permissible value for unwanted emission intensity is defined (see
Table 3).
For the receiver a limit for the secondary radiated emissions is defined (see Table 4).

Figure 1 shows the SPIRIT1 application board. The application is composed of two boards: a daughterboard and a motherboard. The daughterboard holds the SPIRIT1 with the circuits necessary for operation. In order to function properly the daughterboard has to be plugged into the motherboard (see Figure 2) using two header 5x2 connectors (J6 and J7).
The motherboard is provided with an STM32L152VBT6 microcontroller to correctly program the transceiver. The microcontroller is programmed with firmware developed for the SPIRIT1 application. A graphical user interface (GUI) has been developed to correctly program the SPIRIT1.
The daughterboard is provided with a 52 MHz crystal to provide the correct oscillator to the SPIRIT1.
The SPIRIT1 has an internal SMPS that drastically reduces power consumption making the SPIRIT1 the best in class for the application in this bandwidth. The SMPS is fed from the battery (1.8 V to 3.6 V) and provides a programmable voltage (1.4 V usually) to the device. An SMA connector is present to connect the board to the antenna or to the instrumentation to verify the correct functionality and verify the ETSI standard request.
A few passive components (inductors and capacitors) are used for matching/filtering of the power amplifier (PA) and balun network for the receiver.
To reduce the application cost the SPIRIT1 is designed to work without an external antenna switch. This daughterboard is designed to show the functionality of the SPIRIT1 in this condition. Of course an application with antenna switch can be implemented, but this isn't described in this document.

All the measurements given are measured under the following conditions: Tc = 25 °C, Vdd = 3.0 V, f = 922 MHz (middle frequency of the bandwidth used), unless otherwise specified.
The maximum output power of the SPIRIT1 in this band is 10 dBm, so all the measurements for the convenience radio stations and low-power radio stations with +24 dBm or +13 dBm output power will be performed at +10 dBm. Low-power radio stations with output power of 0 dBm will be performed with the correct output power.
A radio channel consists of up to 5 consecutive unit radio channels which are defined such that their center frequency is located from 920.6 MHz to 923.4 MHz with 200 kHz separation and a bandwidth of 200 kHz. SPIRIT1 fully supports the center frequency, separation and bandwidth requirements. No measurement in that sense will be done.
There aren't specific requirements for the modulation method, while the permissible value for the occupied bandwidth is (200 x n) kHz or less, where n is the number of unit radio channels constituting the entire radio channel and is an integer from 1 to 5. The measurement in this case will be done with a GFSK (BT = 0.5) modulation with 100 kbps data rate, 50 kHz frequency deviation. Different combinations of modulation, data rate and frequency deviation creates signals that have a bandwidth lower than 200 kHz: a specific check has to be done for each case.
There are no specific requirements in the standard about setting the detector, resolution bandwidth (RBW) or video bandwidth (VBW) of the spectrum analyzer. The detector will be set to peak, the resolution and video bandwidths will be set sufficiently large to ensure the correctness of the measurement, and the display will be set to peak hold.
The adjacent channel leakage power is defined as the amount of the modulated RF signal power which falls within a given adjacent channel. This power is the sum of the mean power produced by the modulation, hum and noise of the transmitter.
Different masks are defined for the two types of operating modes. For the convenience radio stations the masks given in Figure 4 and 6 are defined. The first one defines the channel mask of a radio channel whose frequency is from 920.5 MHz to 922.3 MHz. The second one defines the channel mask of a radio channel whose frequency is from 922.3 MHz to 923.5 MHz. The max output power permitted for the convenience radio station is 250 mW (+24 dBm), the SPIRIT1 doesn't support this output power, so the mask compliance is verified with an output power of 10 dBm. An external PA should be used to reach the maximum output power.
Figure 5 and 7 show the compliance measurement with the two masks and that the SPIRIT1 complies. If an external power amplifier is used to burst the output power to +24 dBm a verification of the channel masks has to be done. If the mask requirements aren't met, a reduction of the data rate and/or frequency deviation is necessary.
For the low-power radio stations the masks printed in Figure 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 are defined.
Figure 8 defines the channel mask of a radio channel whose frequency is from 915.9 MHz to 916.9 MHz. In this case the maximum permitted output power is 1 mW (0 dBm), so the measurement is performed with this output power level. Figure 9 shows the SPIRIT1
