Introduction The EUT operates in the 2.4GHz ISM band. The EUT (antenna included) is compliant with modular approval and the normal operation distance (after installing in other device, such as router or access point), 20cm from the human body; therefore, the EUT is defined as a Mobile Device. The reason to do the MPE Evaluation is to avoid the RF hazard to human body. The maximum output power and gain of the antenna were used to calculate the limited distance from the product. The limit for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) specified in FCC 1.1310 is followed. The Notice in Installation Manual has been stated as below: While installing and operating this transmitter, the radio frequency exposure limit of 1mW/(cm*cm) may be exceeded at distances close to the transmitter. therefore, the user must maintain a minimum distance of 20 cm from the device at all time. 2. RF Exposure Limit According to FCC 1.1310: The criteria listed in the following table shall be used to evaluate the environmental impact of human exposure to radio-frequency (RF) radiation as specified in 1.1307(b). Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) Frequency Range (MHz) Electric Field Strength (V/m) Magnetic Field Strength (A/m) Power Density (mW/cm 2 ) Average Time (minutes) (A) Limits for Occupational / Control Exposures 30-300 61.4 0.163 1.0 6 300-1500 - - F/300 6 1500-100,000 - - 5 6 (B) Limits for General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure 30-300 27.5 0.073 0.2 30 300-1500 - - F/1500 30 1500-100,000 - - 1.0 30 F= Frequency in MHz Intertek Testing Services ETL SEMKO FCC ID. : Q2EWLAN01 Report No.: EME-030419 Page 5 of 5 3. RF Exposure calculations From § FCC 1.1310 table 1, the maximum permissible RF exposure for an uncontrolled environment is 1mW/(cm*cm), where, (cm*cm) = square cm. The electric field generated for a 1mW/(cm*cm) exposure (S) is calculated as follows: S = E*E/Z where, S = Power density E = Electric field Z = Impedance so, 1mW/(cm*cm) = 10 W/(m*m) Z is 377 ohm of the impedance of free space, where E and H field are perpendicular. Thus the Electric field to produce a 1mW/(cm*cm) exposure is: E = (10 x 377) ½ = 61.4 V/m, which is equivalent to 1mW/(cm*cm) Maximum conducted peak output power is 14.89 dBm and maximum antenna gain is 0 dBi. The maximum radiated output power resulted in 30.83 mW. Using the relationship between electric field E, effective radiated power in watts P, and distance in meters D, the corresponding distance D to produce a 1mW/(cm*cm) is calculated by the following expression: D = (P x 30) ½ /E = (30.83 x 10 x 30) ½ /61.4 = 1.57 cm where, P: maximum effective radiated power measured, 14.89 dBm (30.83 mW) E: electric field equivalent to 1mW/(cm*cm), 61.4 V/m The minimum distance by calculation and normal use distance were listed in the table as below: E.I.R.P. Calculated RF Exposure Allowable Minimum Separation Distance(cm) Normal Use Minimum RF Exposure Separation Distance(cm) dBm mW 14.89 30.83 1.57 20 The calculated Minimum allowable distance is very close to the antenna, and is far away from the normal use distance.
