RF Exposure Info

RF-Exposure 2013-09-09 Page 1 of 2 Environmental assessment (EA) The device is designed to carry 3 transmitters: - Medical telemetry transmitter operating at 608-614 MHz, FCC ID: PQC-OBRBSBV1, IC: 3549C-OBRBSBV1 - 2 x transmitter operating at 2400-2483.5 MHz, FCC ID: PQC-SRRBV3, IC: 3549C-SRRBV3 This device is to be used only for fixed and mobile applications. 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. The table below is excerpted from Table 1B of 47 CFR 1.1310 titled Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) and Health Canada Safety Code 6, Limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure: Frequency Range (MHz) Power density (mW/cm 2 ) Averaging time (minutes) 300 – 1500 f (MHz) /1500 30 1500 – 100.000 1.0 30 Based on the above table the Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) are: For 608 MHz frequency band device: 0.40 mW/cm 2 For 2400 MHz frequency band device: 1.00 mW/cm 2 For this consideration the max measured source based time averaged powers are: Max. power for 600 MHz operation: 4.3 mW ERP Max. power for 2400 MHz operation: 0.2 mW EIRP Using the equation from page 19 of OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01: 2 4R PG S   where: S = power density (in appropriate units, e.g. mW/cm 2 ) 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) At a distance of 20 cm the calculated power density of the individual transmitter are: 600 MHz transmitter: 0.00086 mW/cm 2 2400 MHz transmitter: 0.00001 mW/cm 2 (2 transmitter) 600 MHz transmitter: 0.22 % of Maximum Permissible Exposure 2400 MHz transmitter: 0.003 % of Maximum Permissible Exposure (2 transmitter) RF-Exposure 2013-09-09 Page 2 of 2 For the simulation of the simultaneous transmission condition the following antenna separation distances were estimated. (see picture) Result: The sum percentage for location that are at least 20 cm from any active antenna is 0.226% and below the Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure. Distance12.5cm Distance14cm Distance11.5cm
