TRANSMIT/RECEIVE ANTENNA REQUIREMENTS
The ideal antenna is a ceramic patch that has left hand circular polarization. This antenna should have a gain
in the spatial area between 25 degrees and 90 degrees elevation, with a maximum gain that, when combined
with the conducted output of the module at the antenna output, does not exceed the EIRP limitations specified
within the Modular Grant Certification (EIRP 34.70 dBm). Recommended antenna: Taoglas SP.1615.25.4.A.02.
See
"Single Modular Approval
details.
The ST150M has Modular Certification from the FCC (USA) and Industry Canada (Canada) when used with an
antenna that meets the specifications above. This means that, in general, no further FCC Part 25 testing or IC
testing is required when using an approved antenna in accordance with the Globalstar-specified
implementation requirements listed in this document. Note however, that regulatory requirements are subject
to change at any time, and it is the responsibility of the integrator to ensure that the product is fully
compliant with all applicable regulations in whatever markets the integrator is selling the product.
Final installation must be in compliance with 25.213. The antenna installation and operating configuration of
this transmitter must satisfy MPE categorical Exclusion Requirements of 2.1091. The antenna used for this
transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not
be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
BLE ANTENNA REQUIREMENTS
5.5
Globalstar recommends the following antenna, or similar, for optimal BLE performance:
Manufacturer: Pulse Larsen Antennas
Part Number: W3008C
Frequency: 2400-2483.5MHz
Max Gain: +1.3 dBi
Nominal Impedance: 50Ω
Power Handling: 5W
Note: it will be the responsibility of the VAR/developer to ensure the tuning of the Bluetooth antenna in its
intended final installation meets the tuning requirements for the end application.
