Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) Calculations
      Given
            E=√(30*P*G)/d and        S=E^2/3770
      where
            E=Field Strength in Volts/meter
            P=Power in Watts
            G=Numeric Antenna Gain
            d=Distance in meters
            S=Power Density in mW/cm^2

      Combine equations and rearrange the terms to express the distance as a function of the
      remaining variables:
              d=√((30*P*G)/(3770*S))

      Changing to units of power in mW and distance in cm, using:
             P(mW)=P(W)/1000                 d(cm)=100*d(m)
      yields
             d=100*√((30*(P/1000)*G)/(3770*S))
             d=0.282*√(P*G/S)
      where
             d=Distance in cm
             P=Power in mW
             G=Numerica Antenna Gain
             S=Power Density in mW/cm^2

      Substituting the logarithmic form of power and gain using:
              P(mW)=10^(P(dBm)/10)             G(numeric)=10^(G(dBi)/10)
      yields
              d=0.282*10^((P+G)/20)/√S                                                                    Equation (1)
      where
              d=MPE distance in cm
              P=Power in dBm
              G=Antenna Gain in dBi
              S=Power Density in mW/cm^2

      Equation (1) and the measured peak power is used to calculate the MPE distance. Note that for
      mobile or fixed location transmitters such as an access point, the minimum separation distance is
      20 cm even if the calculations indicate that the MPE distance may be less.

      S=1mW/cm^2 maximum. The highest 2.4GHz antenna gain supported is 10 dBi, and the highest
      5 GHz antenna gain is 9.5 dBi. Using the peak power levels recorded in the test report along
      with Equation 1 above, the MPE distances are calculated as follows.
