MPE Evaluation for
 AR7594 Wireless
     Module

      October 25, 2017


1. Introduction
     In this application we seek modular approval for the AR7594 radio module. This
     Maximum Permissive Exposure (MPE) report demonstrates compliance
     analysis for AR7594 radio module with FCC CFR 47 §2.1091 and IC RSS-102
     for operation in mobile exposure conditions. The MPE analysis is limited for US
     bands only.

     The general population/uncontrolled exposure limits are applicable to situations
     in which the general public may be exposed or in which persons who are
     exposed as a consequence of their employment may not be made fully aware of
     the potential for exposure or cannot exercise control over their exposure.

     Any collocated transmitter must have a valid FCC ID with the collocated
     parameters defined in this MPE report. A separation distance of 20cm or more
     shall be maintained between the end user and each collocated transmitting
     antenna.


2. RF Exposure Limits and Equations

   FCC RULES:

  According to FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, the criteria listed in Table 1 shall
  be used to evaluate the environmental impact of human exposure to radio
  frequency (RF) radiation as specified in §1.1307.

            Table 1: Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE)


EQUATIONS:


Power density is given by:

       S = EIRP / (4 * Pi* D^2)

where S = Power density (mW/cm^2)
      EIRP = Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power (mW)
      D = Separation distance (cm)


3. AR7594 Product Specs
  AR7594 will transmit on only one band and mode of operation at any one time.
  Table 3 lists the supported frequency bands in USA and the maximum power in
  each of those bands.

  4. Stand-Alone Transmission
         When AR7594 module transmits as a stand-alone mobile device, the
         source-based time-averaged EIRP is calculated by summing up conducted power
         and antenna gain. A 100% duty cycle is used for calculations to present a
         worse-case analysis. The antenna gains are chosen so that the resulted radiated
         power levels are within the limits specified by the FCC rules and IC Radio
         Standards Specifications (RSS). The IC exemption limits for routine RF exposure
         evaluation are calculated using the lowest frequency of the operating band
         presenting the most stringent limits.

         As shown in Table 5 below, the resulted EIRP are always below the IC exemption
         limits for all the operating modes.

                   4. Collocated Transmission
                   When AR7594 module co-transmits with radio transmitter(s) as a mobile device,
                   per KDB 447498 D01, 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 evaluation here considers a WiMAX or WLAN transmitter, and a Bluetooth
                   transmitter as collocated transmitters. Their radiated output power levels are listed
                   in Table 6 below. The MPE ratio is defined by the ratio of power density to MPE
                   limit. The sum of the MPE ratios is calculated as follows:

                   Σ𝑀𝑃𝐸 𝑅𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜 = Max (AR7594 MPE ratio) + Max (WLAN/WiMax MPE ratio) + BT MPE
                   Ratio
                   = 0.208+0.100+0.006=0.314 < 1.0

5. Conclusion
  The analysis presented in this report concludes that the AR7594 radio module,
  when transmitting either in standalone or simultaneously with other co-located radio
  transmitters within a host device, is compliant with the IC RF exposure
  requirements in mobile exposure condition, provided the conducted power and
  antenna gain do not exceed the limits in Table 4 for each given frequency band and
  operating mode.
