Page 1 of 1 1 RF Exposure MPE Calculation Prediction of MPE limit at a given distance For purposes of these requirements mobile devices are defined by the FCC as transmitters designed to be used in other than fixed locations and to generally be used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters is normally maintained between radiating structures and the body of the user or nearby persons. These devices are normally evaluated for exposure potential with relation to the MPE limits. As the 20 cm separation specified under FCC rules may not be achievable under normal operation of the EUT, an RF exposure calculation is needed to show the minimum distance required to be less than the power density limit, as required under FCC rules. Equation from IEEE C95.1 Where: S = power density R = distance to the centre of radiation of the antenna EIRP = EUT Maximum power Result Channel Frequency (MHz) EIRP (mW) Power density limit (S) (mW/cm 2 ) Distance (R) cm required to be less than the power density limit 759.989102 13.03 0.506 1.33 857.982371 11.32 0.571 1.22 Note *: The above calculations take into account the overall system loss.

The apparatus was set-up and exercised using the configurations, modes of operation and arrangements defined in this report only. Any modifications made are identified in Section 8 of this report. Particular operating modes, apparatus monitoring methods and performance criteria required by the standards tested to have been performed except where identified in Section 5.2 of this test report (Deviations from Test Standards). Note: 1) In order that the noise figure complies with the limit, the total system loss must be taken into account. 2) In order that the intermodulation figure complies with the limit, the total system loss must be taken into account. 3) The Cable Loss (dB) + Splitter Loss (dB) - antenna gain (dBi) - 2.15 dB (EIRP to ERP conversion) must be greater than or equal to 26 dB. 4) The Uplink direction is connected via cable, and not over the air, and therefore the Uplink was not tested.
