 4.      SAR Measurement System & Test Equipment
 4.1. SAR Measurement System
The DASY5 system used for performing compliance tests consists of the following items:




     A standard high precision 6-axis robot with controller, teach pendant and software. An arm extension for
      accommodating the data acquisition electronics (DAE).
     An isotropic Field probe optimized and calibrated for the targeted measurement.
     A data acquisition electronics (DAE) which performs the signal amplification, signal multiplexing, AD-
      conversion, offset measurements, mechanical surface detection, collision detection, etc. The unit is battery
      powered with standard or rechargeable batteries. The signal is optically transmitted to the EOC.
     The Electro-optical converter (EOC) performs the conversion from optical to electrical signals for the digital
      communication to the DAE. To use optical surface detection, a special version of the EOC is required. The
      EOC signal is transmitted to the measurement server.
     The function of the measurement server is to perform the time critical tasks such as signal filtering, control of
      the robot operation and fast movement interrupts.
     The Light Beam used is for probe alignment. This improves the (absolute) accuracy of the probe positioning.
     A computer running WinXP or Win7 and the DASY5 software.
     Remote control and teach pendant as well as additional circuitry for robot safety such as warning lamps, etc.
     The phantom, the device holder and other accessories according to the targeted measurement.

6.5. Test Rational
The DUT previously underwent SAR testing at reduced power levels in the 2.4 GHz band at 5mm test
separation distance. (See UL SAR test report 14U17814-S1A). This report contains SAR test results at
full power at a separation distance of 17mm. SAR testing for Bluetooth and in the 5GHz bands at 17mm
was not necessary as testing at the maximum power was already reported in UL SAR test report
14U17814-S1A at 5mm.

   9.    Dielectric Property Measurements
The temperature of the tissue-equivalent medium used during measurement must also be within 18C to 25C and
within ± 2C of the temperature when the tissue parameters are characterized.
The dielectric parameters must be measured before the tissue-equivalent medium is used in a series of SAR
measurements. The parameters should be re-measured after each 3 – 4 days of use; or earlier if the dielectric
parameters can become out of tolerance; for example, when the parameters are marginal at the beginning of the
measurement series.
Tissue dielectric parameters were measured at the low, middle and high frequency of each operating frequency
range of the test device.

9.2. Dielectric Property Measurements Results
The temperature of the tissue-equivalent medium used during measurement must also be within 18C to 25C and
within ± 2C of the temperature when the tissue parameters are characterized.
The dielectric parameters must be measured before the tissue-equivalent medium is used in a series of SAR
measurements. The parameters should be re-measured after each 3 – 4 days of use; or earlier if the dielectric
parameters can become out of tolerance; for example, when the parameters are marginal at the beginning of the
measurement series.
Tissue dielectric parameters were measured at the low, middle and high frequency of each operating frequency
range of the test device.

 10. System Check
SAR system verification is required to confirm measurement accuracy, according to the tissue dielectric media,
probe calibration points and other system operating parameters required for measuring the SAR of a test device.
The system verification must be performed for each frequency band and within the valid range of each probe
calibration point required for testing the device. The same SAR probe(s) and tissue-equivalent media combinations
used with each specific SAR system for system verification must be used for device testing. When multiple probe
calibration points are required to cover substantially large transmission bands, independent system verifications are
required for each probe calibration point. A system verification must be performed before each series of SAR
measurements using the same probe calibration point and tissue-equivalent medium. Additional system verification
should be considered according to the conditions of the tissue-equivalent medium and measured tissue dielectric
parameters, typically every three to four days when the liquid parameters are remeasured or sooner when marginal
liquid parameters are used at the beginning of a series of measurements.

10.1. Reference Target SAR Values
The reference SAR values can be obtained from the calibration certificate of system validation dipoles
                                                                                            Target SAR Values (W/kg)

frequency, must be within 10% of the manufacturer calibrated dipole SAR target.

11.     Measured and Reported (Scaled) SAR Results
SAR Test Reduction criteria are as follows:

KDB 447498 D01 General RF Exposure Guidance:
Testing of other required channels within the operating mode of a frequency band is not required when the reported 1-g or 10-g
SAR for the mid-band or highest output power channel is:
   ≤ 0.8 W/kg or 2.0 W/kg, for 1-g or 10-g respectively, when the transmission band is ≤ 100 MHz
   ≤ 0.6 W/kg or 1.5 W/kg, for 1-g or 10-g respectively, when the transmission band is between 100 MHz and 200 MHz
   ≤ 0.4 W/kg or 1.0 W/kg, for 1-g or 10-g respectively, when the transmission band is ≥ 200 MHz

KDB 248227 D01 SAR Measurements Procedures for 802.11 a/b/g Transmitters v01r02 (pg.6):
Each channel should be tested at the lowest data rate in each a-b/g mode or 4.9 GHz channel BW configuration.
When the extrapolated maximum peak SAR for the maximum output channel is ≤ 1.6 W/kg and the 1-g averaged SAR is ≤ 0.8
W/kg, testing of other channels in the “default test channels” or “required test channels” configuration is optional.

April 2013 TCB Workshop Updates:
Apply usual 802.11 test exclusion considerations, but include 802.11ac SAR for highest 802.11a configuration in each frequency
band and each exposure condition.

 12. SAR Measurement Variability
In accordance with published RF Exposure KDB procedure 865664 D01 SAR measurement 100 MHz to 6 GHz
v01. These additional measurements are repeated after the completion of all measurements requiring the same
head or body tissue-equivalent medium in a frequency band. The test device should be returned to ambient
conditions (normal room temperature) with the battery fully charged before it is re-mounted on the device holder for
the repeated measurement(s) to minimize any unexpected variations in the repeated results.

1) Repeated measurement is not required when the original highest measured SAR is < 0.80 W/kg; steps 2)
   through 4) do not apply.
2) When the original highest measured SAR is ≥ 0.80 W/kg, repeat that measurement once.
3) Perform a second repeated measurement only if the ratio of largest to smallest SAR for the original and first
   repeated measurements is > 1.20 or when the original or repeated measurement is ≥ 1.45 W/kg (~ 10% from
   the 1-g SAR limit).
4) Perform a third repeated measurement only if the original, first or second repeated measurement is ≥1.5 W/kg
   and the ratio of largest to smallest SAR for the original, first and second repeated measurements is > 1.20.
