Stuart, Are you confusing the requirement to meet a peak limit while also meeting the average limit?
The FCC imposes a condition on meeting a limit where an average detector is specified. If you have a pulsed system, the system must meet the average limit and at the same time not be more than 20 dB higher in peak detection. This does not mean you can add 20 dB to the average limit for any signal condition. Is this issue the origin of the question?
