          RF Exposure Measurement (Mobile Device)
1. Introduction
In this document, we try to prove the safety of radiation harmfulness to the human body
for our product. The limit for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) specified in FCC
1.1310 is followed. The Gain of the antenna used in this product is measured in a Fully
Anechoic Chamber (FAC) calibrated for antenna measurement in ADT, and also the
maximum total power input to the antenna is measured. Through the Friis transmission
formula and the maximum gain of the antenna, we can calculate the distance, away from
the product, where the limit of MPE is reached.
Although the Friis transmission formula is a far field assumption, the calculated result of
that is an over-prediction for near field power density. We will take that as the worst case
to specify the safety range.

According to FCC 1.1310: The criteria listed in the following table shall be used to
evaluate the environmental impact of human exposure to radio-frequency (RF) radiation

3. Friis Formula


Friis transmission formula : Pd = (Pout*G) / (4*pi*r2)


where
Pd = power density in mW/cm2
Pout = output power to antenna in mW
G = gain of antenna in linear scale
Pi = 3.1416
R = distance between observation point and center of the radiator in cm


If we know the maximum Gain of the antenna and the total power input to the antenna,
through the calculation, we will know the MPE value at distance 20cm.

4 EUT Operating condition
The software provided by Manufacturer enabled the EUT to transmit and receive data at
lowest, middle and highest channel individually.



5. Classification

The antenna of this product, under normal use condition, is at least 20cm away from the
body of the user. Warning statement to the user for keeping at least 20cm or more
separation distance with the antenna should be included in users manual. So, this
device is classified as Mobile Device.
