                         RF Exposure evaluation

FCC ID: 2APRD-CATM

1. Applicable Standard
According to §1.1307(b)(1), systems operating under the provisions of this section
shall be operated in a manner that ensures that the public is not exposed to radio
frequency energy level in excess of the Commission’s guidelines.
According to §1.1310 and §2.1091 RF exposure is calculated.
KDB447498 v06: Mobile and Portable Devices RF Exposure Procedures and
Equipment Authorization Policies.


2. Limit

FCC:
Systems operating under the provisions of FCC 47 CFR section shall be operated in a
manner that ensures that the public is not exposed to radio frequency energy level in
excess of the Commission’s guidelines.
In accordance with 47 CFR FCC Part 2 Subpart J, section 2.1091 this device has
been defined as mobile device whereby a distance of 0.2m normally can be
maintained between the user and the device, and below RF Permissible Exposure
limit shall comply with.
In accordance with KDB447498D01 for Simultaneous transmission MPE test
exclusion applies when the sum of the MPE ratios for all simultaneous transmitting
antennas incorporated in a host device, based on the calculated/estimated,
numerically modeled or measured field strengths or power density, is ≤ 1.0. The MPE
ratio of each antenna is determined at the minimum test separation distance required
by the operating configurations and exposure conditions of the host device, according
to the ratio of field strengths or power density to MPE limit, at the test frequency.
Either the maximum peak or spatially averaged results from measurements or
numerical simulations may be used to determine the MPE ratios. Spatial averaging
does not apply when MPE is estimated using simple calculations based on far-field
plane-wave equivalent conditions. The antenna installation and operating
requirements for the host device must meet the minimum test separation distances
required by all antennas, in both standalone and simultaneous transmission
operations, to satisfy compliance.

5. Simultaneous transmission MPE Considerations

According to KDB447498 :For mobile exposure host platform to qualify for simultaneous
transmission MPE test exclusion, all transmitters and antennas in the host must be either
evaluated for MPE compliance, by measurement or computational modeling, or qualify for the
standalone MPE test exclusion in section 7.1.
Simultaneous transmission MPE test exclusion applies when the sum of the MPE ratios for all
simultaneous transmitting antennas incorporated in a host device, based on the
calculated/estimated, numerically modeled or measured field strengths or power density, is ≤
1.0.
This means that:
∑ of MPE ratios ≤ 1.0


The EUT is Not Applicable.

6. Conclusion
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment.
