5. MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE RF EXPOSURE
   5.1.        FCC RULES
§1.1310 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(b), except in the case
of portable devices which shall be evaluated according to the provisions of §2.1093 of this
chapter.

   5.2.        EQUATIONS
POWER DENSITY

Power density is given by:

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

Where

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

Power density in units of mW/cm^2 is converted to units of W/m^2 by multiplying by 10.


DISTANCE

Distance is given by:

D = SQRT (EIRP / (4 * Pi * S))

Where

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


SOURCE-BASED DUTY CYCLE

Where applicable (for example, multi-slot cell phone applications) a duty cycle factor may be
applied.

Source-based time-averaged EIRP = (DC / 100) * EIRP

Where

DC = Duty Cycle in %, as applicable
EIRP = Equivalent Isotropic Radiated Power in W

    5.3.        LIMITS AND IC EXEMPTION
FIXED LIMITS

For operation in the 902MHz – 928MHz Band:

From FCC §1.1310 Table 1 (B), the maximum value of S = f/1500 = 902/1500 = 0.6 mW/cm^2

6. RF EXPOSURE RESULTS
In the table(s) below, Power and Gain are entered in units of dBm and dBi respectively and
conversions to linear forms are used for the calculations.

* Initial power measured during EMC testing where settings adjusted to put out maximum power.
** Accounting for additional +0.4dB based on power tolerance reported by the manufacurer.

Above results show that device will comply with MPE limits even if output power varies per reported
tolerance.
