Technical Details
FCC Part 15 Class B Compliance
This device and its accessories comply with
part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device
and its accessories may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device and its
accessories must accept any interference
received, including interference that causes
undesired operation.
Technical Details
The LG200 operates on Code Division
Multiple Access frequencies (Personal
Communications Services PCS) at 1.9 Ghz.
CDMA technology uses a feature called
DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum)
thatenables the phone to keep
communication from being crossed and to
use one frequency channel by multiple users
in the same specific area. This resultsin a 10-
fold capacityincrease when compared with
analog mode. In addition, features such as
soft / softer handoff, hard handoff, and
dynamic RF power control technologies
combine toreduce call interruptions.
The PCS CDMA Networks consist of MSO
(Mobile Switching Office), BSC (Base
Station Controller), BTS (Base Station
Transmission System), and MS (Mobile
Station).
*TSB-74: Protocol between an IS-95A system
and ANSI J-STD-008
1xRTT system receives twice as many
subscribersin the wireless section as IS-95.
Itsbattery life is twice as long as IS-95. High-
speed data transmission is also possible.
The table on the previous page lists some
major CDMA standards.
FCC RF ExposureInformation
WARNING! Read this information before
operating the phone.
In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the
United States, with its action in Report and
Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated
safety standard for human exposure to
Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic
energy emitted by FCC regulated
transmitters. Those guidelines are

11
Technical Details
consistent with the safety standard
previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies. The design
of this phone complies with the FCC
guidelines and these international
standards.
