Summary
Considering the results of the performed test according to FCC 47CFR Part 2.1093, the item under test is IN
COMPLIANCE with the requested specifications specified in the standard.
The maximum 1g volume averaged SAR found during this test has been 0.027 W/kg, for the 2450 MHz band and
802.11n with 20MHz BW mode.
NOTE: The results presented in this Test Report apply only to the particular item under test established in page 1
of this document, as presented for test on the date(s) shown in section, “USAGE OF SAMPLES, TESTING
PERIOD AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS”.
Remarks and comments
1: 802.11n = 20MHz BW / 802.11n* = 40MHz BW.
2: Testing of 802.11g is not required due to the testing reductions mentioned in FCC OET KDB 248227 – SAR
Measurements Procedures 802.11a/b/g Transmitters (May 2007 – Revised), paragraph “Frequency Channel
Configurations”.
3: Testing of other channels in each band is optional when the maximum output channel SAR fulfills the testing
reductions mentioned in FCC OET KDB 248227 – SAR Measurements Procedures 802.11a/b/g Transmitters (May
2007 – Revised), paragraph “Frequency Channel Configurations”.

1. GENERAL INTRODUCTION

1.1.     Application Standard
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) sets the limits for General Population /
Uncontrolled exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields for transmitting devices designed
to be used within 20 centimetres of the user body under FCC 47 CFR Part 2.1093 -
“Radiofrequency radiation exposure evaluation: portable devices”, paragraph (d)(2).
Specific requirements and procedure for SAR assessment are describe under FCC OET Bulletin 65,
Supplement C (Edition 01-01), “Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure
to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields”, and all the FCC OET Knowledge Database documents
referred at the beginning of this document.

1.2.     General requirements
The SAR measurement has been performed continuing the following considerations and
environment conditions:
       - The ambient temperature shall be in the range of 18ºC to 25ºC and the variation shall not
       exceed +/-2ºC during the test.
       - The ambient humidity shall be in the range of and 30% - 70%.
       - The device battery shall be fully charged before each measurement.

1.3.     Measurement system and phantom requirements
The measurement system used for SAR tests fulfils the procedural and technical requirements
described at the reference standards used.
The phantom is a simplified representation of the human anatomy and comprised of material with
electrical properties similar to the corresponding tissues in human body.

1.4.     Measurement Liquids requirements.
The liquids used to simulate the human tissues, must fulfils the requirements of the dielectric
properties required. These target dielectric properties per FCC OET KDB 450824 instructions come
from the dipole and probe calibration data which are included in Appendix B, Section 2, of this
document.
As indicated in FCC OET KDB 450824, it is allowed a 5% variation of the above mentioned level at
the 2450 MHz band.

2.2.   Test Positions of device relative to body
The laptop device was tested in one position for all tests, with the bottom face placed directly
against the phantom so the position of the laptop would be used (normal use condition). Further
analysis was performed to determine the location which showed the highest SAR.
The antennas on the laptop are located within the edge screen. According to FCC OET Bulletin 65 –
Supplement C, the antennas which would applied in the test are antennas or radiating structures in
direct contact with the user’s body within 20 centimetres of the body of a user under normal
operating conditions.



2.3.   Test to be performed
In all operating modes and bands the measurements have to be performed on the “default test
channels” defined at FCC OET KDB 248227 – SAR Measurements Procedures 802.11a/b/g
Transmitters (May 2007 – Revised), except those channels defined as “required test channels” at the
same document.



2.4.   Description of interpolation/extrapolation scheme
The local SAR inside the Phantom is measured using small dipole sensing elements inside a probe
element. The probe tip must not be in contact with the Phantom’s surface in order to minimise
measurement errors, but the highest local SAR is obtained from measurements at a certain distances
from the shell trough extrapolation. The accurate assessment of the maximum SAR averaged over 1
gr. and 10 gr. requires a very fine resolution in the three dimensional scanned data array. Since the
measurements have to be performed over a limited time, the measured data have to be interpolated
to provide an array of sufficient resolution.
The interpolation of 2D area scan is used after the initial area scan, at a fixed distance from the
Phantom shell wall. The initial scan data is collected with a proper spatial resolution and this
interpolation is used to find the location of the local maximum for positioning the subsequent 3D
scanning to within a 1mm resolution.
For the 3D scan, data is collected on a spatially regular 3D grid having 5mm steps in both lateral
directions, and 5mm in depth direction for the 2450MHz band. After the data collection by the SAR
probe, the data are extrapolated in the depth direction to assign values to points in the 3D array
closer to the shell wall. A notional extrapolation value is also assigned to the first point outside the
shell wall so that subsequent interpolation schemes will de applicable right up to the shell wall
boundary.



2.5.   Determination of the largest peak spatial-average SAR
To determine the maximum value of the peak spatial-average SAR of a EUT, all device positions,
configurations and operational modes should be tested for each frequency band.
According to FCC 47 CFR Part 2.1093, the averaging volume shall be chosen as 1 g of contiguous
tissue. The cubic volumes, over which the SAR measurements are averaged after extrapolation and
interpolation, are chosen in order to include the highest values of local SAR.
The maximum SAR level for the EUT will be the maximum level obtained of the performed
measurements, and indicated in the previous points.

2.6.   System Validation
Prior to the SAR measurements, system verification is done daily to verify the system accuracy. As
FCC OET Bulletin 65 – Supplement C, Appendix D “SAR measurement procedures” Paragraph
“System Verification” specifies, a complete SAR evaluation is done using a half-wavelength dipole
as source with the frequency of the mid-band channel of the operating band, or within 100MHz of
this channel.
The measured 1 gr. and 10 gr. SAR should be within 10% of the expected target values specified in
the calibration certificate of the dipole, for the specific tissue and frequency used.

exposure.
The SAR values have to be averaged over a mass of 1g (SAR 1 gr.) with the shape of a cube. This
level couldn’t exceed the values indicated in the application Standard:

1. TEST CONDITIONS

1.1.   Power supply (V):
Vn = 11.1 Vdc battery
Type of power supply = DC Voltage from rechargeable Li-Ion 11.1 V battery.



1.2.   Temperature (ºC):
Tn = +21.52 to +23.37

The subscript n indicates normal test conditions.



1.3.   Test signal, Output Power and Frequencies
The device was put into operation by using an own control software to program the test mode
required for select the continuous transmission with 100% duty cycle.
In all operating bands the measurements were performed on the “default test channels” defined at
FCC OET KDB 248227 – SAR Measurements Procedures 802.11a/b/g Transmitters (May 2007 –
Revised), except those that fulfil the frequency channel selection criteria mentioned on paragraph
“Frequency Channel Configuration” at the same document.
The output power of the device was set to maximum power level for all tests; a fully charged battery
was used for every test sequence.
The maximum average conducted power of the device was measured with a Power meter R&S
NRVD and a thermocoupled Power sensor NRV-Z51.



1.4.   DUT information
The device under test was the Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000 card located inside a host laptop
(S10-3S) computer which utilises a set of WNC antennas (25.91231.041 / 25.91231.031). The card
was operated utilizing proprietary software (CRTU Version 5.15.36.0) and each channel was
measured using a broadband power meter to determine the maximum average power. The device
was tested in a single chain configuration which is representative of the maximum exposure
condition of this wireless transceiver.
