   FCC RF Exposure evaluation for mobile devices
  Devices operating in standalone mobile device exposure conditions may contain a single transmitter or multiple
  transmitters that do not transmit simultaneously. A minimum test separation distance ≥ 20 cm is required between the
  antenna and radiating structures of the device and nearby persons to apply mobile device exposure limits. The distance
  must be at least 20 cm and fully supported by the operating and installation configurations of the transmitter and its
  antenna(s), according to the source-based time-averaged maximum power requirements of § 2.1091(d)(2). In cases where
  cable losses or other attenuations are applied to determine compliance, the most conservative operating configurations and
  exposure conditions must be evaluated. The minimum test separation distance required for a device to comply with mobile
  device exposure conditions must be clearly identified in the installation and operating instructions, for all installation and
  exposure conditions, to enable users and installers to comply with RF exposure requirements. For mobile devices that have
  the potential to operate in portable device exposure conditions, similar to the configurations described in § 2.1091(d)(4), a
  KDB inquiry is required to determine the SAR test requirements for demonstrating compliance.
  When a device qualifies for the categorical exclusion provision of § 2.1091(c), the minimum test separation distance may
  be estimated, when applicable, by simple calculations according to plane-wave equivalent conditions, to ensure the
  transmitter and its antenna(s) can operate in manners that meet or exceed the estimated distance. The source-based time-
  averaged maximum radiated power, according to the maximum antenna gain, must be applied to calculate the field strength
  and power density required to establish the minimum test separation distance. When the estimated test separation distance
  becomes overly conservative and does not support compliance, MPE measurement or computational modeling may be used
  to determine the required minimum separation distance.
  According to §1.1310 Radiofrequency radiation exposure limits, paragraph (e), the limits for Maximum Permissible
  Exposure (MPE) to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields are:

   FCC MPE Evaluation Results
  Each supported transmission technology will be evaluated to determine if it is in compliance with limits for Maximum
  Permissible Exposure (MPE) to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields.

  In order to perform the assessment, the following equations have been used for the calculations:

  In order to perform the assessment, the following equations have been used for the calculations; these equations are
  accurate in the far-field of an antenna and will over-predict power density in the near field, where they could be used for
  making a "worst case" or conservative prediction:

                                            PE . I . R. P. [mW ]
  Power density: S [ mW / cm 2 ] =
                                             4ΠR[cm]2

                                                                   PE .I . R. P. [mW ]
  Minimum compliance distance: R min [cm] =
                                                               4ΠS[mW / cm 2 ]

  Where:
   S = power density
   PE . I . R.P. = Equivalent isotropically radiated power
   R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (evaluation distance)
   Rmin = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna

  Multiple frequencies assessment
  When multiple sources are introduced into an environment, it becomes necessary to address the sources
  interdependently, since each source will contribute some percentage of the maximum exposure toward the total exposure
  at a fixed location. The sum of the ratios of the exposure from each source to the corresponding maximum exposure for
  the frequency of each source must be evaluated.

  The exposure complies with the maximum permissible exposure if the sum of the ratios is less than unity:
