NORMx,y,z are only intermediate values, i.e., the uncertainties of NORMx,y,z does not affect the E*—field uncertainty inside TSL (see below ConvF). a NORMPMx,y,z = NORMx,y,z * frequency_response (see Frequency Response Chart). This linearization is implemented in DASY4 software versions later than 4.2. The uncertainty of the frequency response is included in the stated uncertainty of ConvF. « DCPx,y,z: DCP are numerical linearization parameters assessed based on the data of power sweep with CW signal (no uncertainty required). DCP does not depend on frequency nor media. * PAR: PAR is the Peak to Average Ratio that is not calibrated but determined based on the signal characteristics * Ax,y,z; Bx,y,z; Cx,y,z2; Dx,y,z; VRx,y,z: A, B, C, D are numerical linearization parameters assessed based on the data of power sweep for specific modulation signal. The parameters do not depend on frequency nor media. VR is the maximum calibration range expressed in RMS voltage across the diode. s ConvF and Boundary Effect Parameters: Assessed in flat phantom using E—field (or Temperature Transfer Standard for f < 800 MHz) and inside waveguide using analytical field distributions based on power measurements for f > 800 MHz. The same setups are used for assessment of the parameters applied for boundary compensation (alpha, depth) of which typical uncertainty values are given. These parameters are used in DASY4 software to improve probe accuracy close to the boundary. The sensitivity in TSL corresponds to NORMx,y,z * ConvF whereby the uncertainty corresponds to that given for ConvF. A frequency dependent ConvF is used in DASY version 4.4 and higher which allows extending the validity from + 50 MHz to + 100 MHz. e Spherical isotropy (3D deviation from isotropy): in a field of low gradients realized using a flat phantom exposed by a patch antenna. e Sensor Offset: The sensor offset corresponds to the offset of virtual measurement center from the probe tip (on probe axis). No tolerance required. e Connector Angle: The angle is assessed using the information gained by determining the NORMx (no uncertainty required). Certificate No: EX3—3929_May14 Page 2 of 11

These liquids are based on various ingredients depending on their frequency range. The below compatibility table shows compatibility of SPEAG products used in conjunction with tissue simulating liquids. Proper treatment and maintenance of all SPEAG products is essential regardless of its compliance status. COMPATIBILITY TABLE Y¥= fully compatible with the tissue simulating liquid. Long time exposure is not critical. P= partially compatible. It is essential to keep the exposure time to a minimum and to rinse and clean the item after exposure to the respective tissue simulating liquid. Continuous exposure will reduce the item life—time drastically and will therefore void any warranty. 100 hours per 7 days maximum exposure. R= restricted compatibility with the respective tissue simulating liquid. Short time exposure of less then 4 hours is possible given that the item is thoroughly rinsed and dried after each exposure. N not compatible with the respective tissue simulating liquid. Short time exposure will cause irreparable damage to the item exposed.
