Summary:

MPE Calculation Results:

In the case the equipment meets compliance by MPE Calculations the product is approved for use under
mobile conditions without further testing under the condition that any additional collocation or
simultaneous transmission requirements (including necessary separation distances) have been met. It is
assumed that the manufacturer shall design the equipment such that the minimum separation distance
of 20cm (or greater, as listed above) is met or that the manufacturer provides a protection guide (or
installation instructions) to the end user such that the antenna(s) may be installed in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions in such a manor to maintain the minimum separation distance.

The Absorption and distribution of Electromagnetic energy in the body is a very complex phenomena
that depends on the mass, shape and physiological condition of the body; the orientation of the body
with respect to the fields; and, the electrical properties of the body and the environment. Variables that
may play a substantial role in possible biological effects are those that characterize the environment
(including but not limited to: ambient temperature, air velocity, relative humidity and body insulation);
and those that characterize the individual (including but not limited to: age, gender, activity level and
existing debilitation or disease). Because innumerable factors may interact to determine specific
biological effects of exposure to electromagnetic fields, any protection guide should consider both
intended and unintended operational environments and provide guidance for installation and use of the
product such that proper separation distances can be maintained. (ANSI C95.1)
