EXHIBIT B Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ku-Band INTRODUCTION The FCC adopted new guidelines and procedures in 1996 for evaluating environmental effects of radio frequency (W) emissions. In order to provide assistance in determining whether proposed or existing transmitting facilities comply with the new guidelines, the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology revised OET Bulletin 65. The revised version updates limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) in terms of electric and magnetic field strength and power density for transmitters operating at frequencies between 300 kHz and 100 GHz. This bulletin was adopted by the FCC in their General Docket No. 97-303 on August 25,1997. In order to comply with the requirements of the Report and Order, calculations to determine the power flux densities in the far field, near field, and reflector regions of the earth station antenna have been made and are contained in this study. The FCC guidelines incorporate two separate tiers of exposure limits that are dependent on the situation in which the exposure takes place and the status of the individuals who are subject to exposure. The earth station transmitting equipment and antenna are located within a fenced area and not accessible to the general public. Entry is restricted to employees who have been made fully aware of the potential for human exposure and can exercise control over their exposure. Therefore occupational / controlled exposure maximum power density limits are used in this study. The FCC Office of Engineering and Technology suggests a method for calculating the maximum values of the power densities emanating from an aperture antenna in OET bulletin 65. This method is used to determine the power densities associated with the satellite antenna. The Loral SKYNETB Hawley PA Ku-Band satellite earth station will be equipped with amplifiers having a maximum output of 8 watts. The transmitter will feed a 2.4 meter antenna via a transmission link having 3 dB loss. The following calculations will be based on a maximum output power at the antenna flange of 4 watts: Antenna Surface. The maximum power density directly in front of the antenna may be expressed as: where: S,,,, = maximum power density at the antenna surface P = power fed to the antenna A = physical area of the aperture antenna 1

EXHIBIT B Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ku-Band Using the parameters for this antenna: S,,,,, = 4 ( 4 Watts) / n ( 2.4 meters / 2)2 S,, = 16 Watts 1 4.52 m 2 s,,,,,, = 3.54 Watts / m 2 S,,,,, = 0.4 mW 1 cm2 Near- Field Region. In the near field of the main beam the power density can reach a maximum before it begins to decrease with distance. The extent of the near field can be described by the following equation: where: R, = extent of near field D = maximumdiameter A =wavelength Using the parameters for this antenna: A = 0.02 meters @ 14500 MHz R, = ( 2.4 meters) * / 4( 0.02 meters) R, = 5.76 / .08 meters R nf. = 72 meters The magnitude of the on axis power density varies according to location in the near field. However, the maximum value of the near field, on axis, power density can be expressed by the following equation: where: S , = maximum near field power density q = aperture efficiency P = power fed to the antenna D = antenna diameter 2

EXHIBIT B Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ku-Band Using the parameters for this antenna: q = .65 P = 4 Watts S , = 16 (.65) (4 Watts) / n (2.4 meters) * S,= 41.6 Watts I 18.1 meter2 S,= 2.3 Watts I meter2 s,= 0.2 mW I cm2 Far Field Region. For purposes of evaluating RF exposure, the distance to the beginning of the far field region can be approximated by the following equation: 0.6D2 R, =- /z where: R, = distance to the beginning of far field D = diameter of antenna A = wavelength Using the parameters for this antenna: R , = 0.6 (2.4 meters) 2 / .02 meters R, = 173 meters The power density in the far field region of the antenna pattern decreases inversely as the square of the distance. The power density in the far field region of the radiation pattern can be estimated by the equation: S, =PG/4zR2 where: S , = powerdensity (on axis) P = power fedtoantenna G = power gain of the antenna in the direction of interest R = distance to the point of interest 3

EXHIBIT B Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ku-Band Using the parameters for this antenna: S, = 4 Watts (49.1dBi) / 4 (n) (173) S, = 325132 I376099 S,f = .86 Watts / meter2 S,= .09 mW / cm2 Main Reflector - Feed Horn Region The RF energy radiated from the feed system is confined to a conical shape whose vertex is located at the feed and extends outward to the main reflector surface. The power density at any point in this region is expressed by the equation: S,,i,d = P/A Where : A = Cross section area of the conical region in meterZ P = Radiated transmitted power in watts At the sub-reflector surface the power density is: Srerd= P/A = 4 / n (0.20/ 2 )*= 127 Wattdmeter’ Sfeed= 13 mW/cmz 4

EXHIBIT B Radiation Hazard Study 2.4 meter Ku-Band Conclusion The results of the above calculations are summarized in the following table and in Figure 1. Region Power Density Remarks Antenna Surface 0.4 mW/cmz Safe Level Main Reflector Feed Horn Region 13 mW/cmz Hazardous Near Field < 72 meters 0.2 mW/cmz Safe Level Far Field > 173 meters 0.9 mW/cm2 Safe Level Results of this hazard study indicate that the 5 mW/cmz MPE limit for OccupationalIControlled Exposure in the 1500 - 100,000 MHz range is not exceeded in areas directly in front of the antenna in the far field. The regions where this limit may be exceeded will be at the antenna the region between the reflector and the feed horn. This area is not readily accessible to personnel and whenever personnel are required to work on the radiating or reflecting parts of the antenna structure, the transmitter will be turned off. Signs to this effect will be posted at the transmitter site. The antenna is surrounded by a fence and unauthorized personnel are prevented access by a locked gate. Based on this study of predicted radio frequency levels, it is concluded that operation of this satellite earth station meets OET Bulletin 65 maximum permissible exposure limits and that no harmful effects will occur to station personnel or anyone within proximity of the station. Therefore, in accordance with 47 CFR 5 1.1307 (b) of the Commission's Rules, preparation and submission of an Environmental Assessment (EA) is not required. 5
