  MPE Evaluation for
HL6528-G2.8V Wireless
       Module

        May 21, 2014


1. Introduction

     In this application we seek for modular approval to the HL6528-G2.8V wireless
     module for use in standalone and collocated simultaneous transmission under
     mobile configuration. This Maximum Permissive Exposure (MPE) report
     demonstrates compliance analysis for HL6528-G2.8V wireless module with
     FCC CFR 47 §2.1091 and IC RSS-102 for standalone and collocated
     transmission in mobile exposure conditions. The MPE analysis is limited for US
     / Canada 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 documenting equivalent or
     degraded RF characteristics 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 WWAN, WiMAX or WLAN, and Bluetooth transmitting
     antenna.

     Portable user conditions or additional collocated transmitters not allowed
     based on this RF exposure analysis require a Class II permissive change and
     updated RF exposure report.


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)

IC RULES:

IC has adopted the RF field strength limits established in Health Canada’s RF
exposure guideline. The limits are shown in Table 2 below per RSS
102.




     Table 2 : RF Field Strength Limits for Devices Used by the General Public
                            (Uncontrolled Environment)


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. Product Declarations

  The HL6528-G2.8V wireless module can be installed for use in any mobile host as
  long as the antenna gain of the host antenna does not exceed the gain listed in
  table 3.

  This MPE analysis is applicable to any collocated transmitters with transmit
  power:
   -less than or equal to 29.0dBm for WLAN/WiMAX; and
   -less than or equal to 15.0dBm for BT.

  Specific FCC IDs for those devices are not necessary or identified in this
  analysis providing they are classified as mobile transmitters. A 100% duty cycle
  is used for calculations to present a worse-case analysis when applicable.

4. MPE Calculations

     The WWAN MPE calculations are based on conservative conducted transmit
     power exceeding those listed in the FCC ID N7NHL6528G28V and IC number
     2417C-HL6528G28V filing. The higher transmit power levels are used to
     present a worst case assessment.

     The WiMAX, WLAN, and BT transmit power and antenna gain parameters
     represent a maximum transmit power for a given frequency band.

     Integration of either a WiMAX or WLAN, and BT module that exceeds the
     parameters requires a new FCC authorization or permissive change
     application. A maximum antenna gain of 5 dBi for WLAN/WiMAX/BT has been
     assumed for all collocated antennas.

     Table 4, 5, and 6 summarize transmitter parameters associated with this
     analysis.

         5. Conclusion
               Based on FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C and 47 CFR §2.1091, the analysis
               concludes that the HL6528-G2.8V wireless module, when transmitting either in
               standalone or simultaneously with other co-located radio transmitters within a host
               device, is compliant with the FCC/IC RF exposure requirements in mobile exposure
               condition, provided the conducted power and antenna gain do not exceed the limits
               in Table 12 for each given frequency band per wireless technology.
