Calculation Method of RF safety Distance:

          When the transmitter is operated as a mobile device, the radiating structure must be maintained
40 cm. (15.75inches) or more from the body of the user or nearby persons. The following calculations show
that at spacings greater than or equal to 40 cm., the MPE limits for Occupational/Controlled exposure are
not exceeded with any antenna up to 17dBi gain.

          Per OET Bulletin 65, far-field equations used to predict power density “are generally accurate in
the far field of an antenna but will over-predict power density in the near field, where they could be used
for making a ‘worst case’ or conservative prediction”(1). This is the method used here to predict the power
density.

The far-field power density S, in mW/ cm2 is:

                    S = (P*G)/(4*Π* R2 )       (Eq. 1)

Where:
           P = power input into the antenna in mW
           S = allowable power density in mW/cm2
           G = numeric gain of the antenna relative to an isotropic radiator
           R = distance to center of radiation in cm

Substituting:
         P = 2000 mW
         G = 50 (17 dBi)
         R = 40 cm

Results:
           S = 4.97 mW/cm2

        The limit for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for Occupational/Controlled Exposure in the
frequency band 2450 – 2500 MHz is 5.0 mW/cm2 (47 CFR 1.1310).

          Therefore, the power density, at a spacing of at least 40 cm., is within the limits specified for
Occupational/Controlled exposure when the device is used as instructed in the Operator Guide, even when
use of the highest allowable gain antenna is assumed. The Operator Guide contains a warning and
instructions on limiting RF exposure by instructing the user to install the unit so as to insure the minimum
safe distance from the antenna to any human body.
