RF Exposure Calculations As per OET Bulletin 65 – Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields – Edition 97-01 together with Supplement C (Ed. 01-01, June 2001) and Industry Canada RSS-102 (Issue 2, Nov. 2005), the maximum power density allowed for general population/uncontrolled exposure is f/1500 mW/cm 2 = f/150 W/m 2 , where f is the frequency of operation in MHz. Calculating for the lowest frequency of operation (905MHz), the maximum power density allowed is 0.603 mW/cm 2 = 6.03 W/m 2 . The power density is calculated as follows: S = (P*G)/(4*pi*R 2 ) = EIRP/(4*pi*R 2 ) where: S = power density in mW/cm 2 P = power at the antenna connector in mW G = linear system gain of the antenna R = separation from antenna (cm) EIRP = Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (mW). By convention, a minimum separation distance of 20 cm has been used for indoor antennas. Applying this distance to the radiation exposure limits, the EIRP is limited to 3.03 W or 34.8 dBm. The min. separation distance required for an EIRP of 36 dBm or 4 W is 22.9 cm. At 30 cm, the EIRP could be as high as 38.3 dBm and still meet the max. power density requirement. The 915C Radio Module has several antenna types that are intended to be fix mounted outdoors with a maximum radiated power of 36 dBm EIRP. These installations must be a min. of 30 cm. from people as per the 915C Radio Operational Requirements document. Therefore the FCC and IC requirements for human exposure to RF radiation are met.
