The table below is excerpted from Table 1B of 47 CFR 1.1310 titled Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE), Limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure: Frequency Range (MHz) Power density (mW/cm2) Averaging time (minutes) 300 – 1500 f (MHz) /1500 30 1500 – 100.000 1.0 30 Using the equation from page 19 of OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01: PG S 4R 2 where: S = power density (in appropriate units, e.g. mW/cm2) P = power input to the antenna (in appropriate units, e.g., mW) G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest relative to an isotropic radiator R = distance to the center of radiation of the antenna (appropriate units, e.g., cm) Note: 1. This device is to be used only for fixed and mobile applications. 2. The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all the persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Additionally, according to § 2.1091: The limit for <1.5 GHz mobile operations where no routine evaluation is required is: 1.5W ERP The limit for >1.5 GHz mobile operations where no routine evaluation is required is: 3W ERP 4.2 IC: RSS-102 Section 2.5.2 RF exposure evaluation is required if the separation distance between the user and the device's radiating element is greater than 20 cm, except when the device operates as follows:  below 1.5 GHz and the maximum EIRP of the device is equal to or less than 2.5 W;  at or above 1.5 GHz and the maximum EIRP of the device is equal to or less than 5 W. RSS-102 4.2: RF Field strength limits for devices used by the General Public (Uncontrolled Environment): Power density 300MHz- 1500 MHz= f/150 W/m2 1500 MHz- 1500000 MHz= 10 W/m2 May 15 2012.

Connect the equipment as shown in the above diagram with the EUT’s antenna in center of the turn table. 2. Adjust the settings of the Digital Radio Communication Tester (DRT) to set the EUT to its maximum power at the required channel. 3. Set the spectrum analyzer to the channel frequency. Set the analyzer to measure peak hold with the required settings. 4. Rotate the EUT 360. Record the peak level in dBm (LVL). 5. Replace the EUT with a vertically polarized half wave dipole or known gain antenna. The center of the antenna should be at the same location as the center of the EUT’s antenna. 6. Connect the antenna to a signal generator with known output power and record the path loss in dB (LOSS). LOSS = Generator Output Power (dBm) – Analyzer reading (dBm). 7. Determine the ERP using the following equation: ERP (dBm) = LVL (dBm) + LOSS (dB) 8. Determine the EIRP using the following equation: EIRP (dBm) = ERP (dBm) + 2.14 (dB) 9. Measurements are to be performed with the EUT set to the low, middle and high channel of each frequency band. Measurement uncertainty: +/-3.0 dB (Note: Steps 5 and 6 above are performed prior to testing and LOSS is recorded by test software. Steps 3, 4, 7 and 8 above are performed with test software.)

Connect the equipment as shown in the above diagram. 2. Adjust the settings of the Digital Radio Communication Tester (DRT) to connect the EUT at the required channel (OR) alternatively use the EUT to set to transmit at a specific mode. 3. Measure conducted power using the power meter or the Spectrum Analyzer. 4. ERP/EIRP is calculated by adding the antenna gain to the measured conducted power. EIRP= Measured conducted power+ Antenna Gain (dBi) (Antenna gain based on measurement or data from the antenna manufacturer.)
