Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation 4-14-4 Asahi-cho, Atsugi-shi, Kanagawa, 243-0014 Japan Request for Modular Transmitter Approval May 14, 2020 FCC ID : AK8M1502 Applicant : Sony Corporation This transmitter, model: M1502 is designed by us. It complies with the modular transmitters basic requirements (Item 1 to 8) in FCC Part 15 Subpart C Section 15.212 as indicated below: Modular Approval Checklist: Modular approval requirement Yes No (1) Have its own RF shielding. (2) Have buffered modulation/data inputs. (3) Have its own power supply regulation. Please refer to Block Diagram. This EUT has the power supply regulator, however one of the input voltages to RF part doesn’t go through the regulator. The stable voltage will be supplied by the end product, which will be required to have a power supply regulator. (4) Comply with the antenna and transmission system requirements of § 15.203, 15.204(b) and 15.204(c). (5) Tested in a stand-alone configuration. Unless the transmitter module will be battery powered, it must comply with the AC line conducted requirements found in FCC § 15.207. AC or DC power lines and data input/output lines connected to the module must not contain ferrites, unless they will be marketed with the module. The length of these lines shall be the length typical of actual use or, if that length is unknown, at least 10 centimeters to insure that there is no coupling between the case of the module and supporting equipment. Any accessories, peripherals, or support equipment connected to the module during testin g shall be unmodified and commercially available. (6) Equipped with either a permanently affixed label or must be capable of electronically displaying its FCC ID. If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. (7) Comply with any specific rules or operating requirements that ordinarily apply to a complete transmitter and the manufacturer must provide adequate instructions along with the module to explain any such requirements. (8) Comply with any applicable RF exposure requirements in its final configuration: The modular transmitter complies with FCC radiation exposure requirement.

RF Exposure / MPE Calculation No. : 13251464S-A Applicant : Son y Corporation Type of Equipment : Communication Module Model No. : M1502 FCC ID : AK8M1502 Sony Corporation declares that Model: M1502 complies with FCC radiation exposure requirement specified in the FCC Rule 2.1091 (for mobile). RF Exposure Calculations: The following information provides the minimum separation distance for the highest gain antenna provided with the “M1502“ as calculated from (B) Limits for General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure of TABLE 1- LIMITS FOR MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE) of §1.1310 Radiofrequency radiation exposure limits. This calculation is based on the highest EIRP possible from the system, considering maximum power and antenna gain, and considering a 1mW/cm^2 uncontrolled exposure limit. The Friis formula used was: Where P =88.92 mW (Maximum average output power) Time average was used for the above value in consideration of 6-minutes time-averaging Burst power average was used for the above value in consideration of worst condition. G =1.995 Numerical Antenna gain; equal to 3 dBi r =20 cm (Separation distance) 0.03530 mW/cm 2 Power Density Result S = 2 4r GP S     Even taking into account the tolerance, this device can be satisfied with the limits.
