A table of maximum permitted spurious emission power levels is given in Appendix 3 of the ITU Radio Regulations.
The spurious emission limits are specified in the following reference bandwidths:
| frequency interval | reference bandwidth | |
| 9 kHz - 150 kHz | 1 kHz | |
| 150 kHz - 30 MHz | 10 kHz | |
| 30 MHz - 1 GHz | 100 kHz | |
| above 1 GHz | 1 MHz |
For unlicensed short range devices, usually a measurement distance of 3 m is taken.
