RF Exposure Estimation (MPE Estimation) Having available the source based average output power and peak antenna gain or the ERP/EIRP of the specified device and for a known minimum distance of its radiating structures from the body of persons according to its use cases (at least 20cm) the power density at that distance can be estimated by the following formula for plane-wave equivalent conditions (far-field conditions), when ground reflection is neglected. PG S= 4πR 2 Where: S = power density (mW/cm2 or W/m2) P = power input to the antenna (mW or W) G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest relative to an isotropic radiator R = distance to the centre of radiation of the antenna (cm or m) Page 7 of 10
