This standard establishes procedures and criteria for evaluating Cordless Telephone Range Performance in a traditional outdoor environment as well as a controlled laboratory environment. The intent is not to establish minimum range distances but rather@ standardize range measurement procedures to allow meaningful comparisons when evaluating products. Several criteria for range performance have been identified@ and it is not intended that range performance will be described by a single number or merit. Several performance measurement procedures are established@ each of which yields a standardized set of measurement data@ that may be used for the comparison of different products.
