RF Exposure Info

FCC-ID QHC-I210G24 IC-ID (Industry Canada) 4393B-I210G24 MPE Prediction Calculations can be made to predict RF field strength and power density levels around typical RF sources using the general equations (3) and (4) on page 19 of the following FCC document: “OET Bulletin 65, Edition 97-01 - Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields”. The table below is excerpted from Table 1B of 47 CFR 1.1310 titled Limits for Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE), 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 are: For 850 MHz frequency band device: 0.57 mW/cm 2 For 1900 MHz frequency band device: 1 mW/cm 2 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) Note: 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. § 2.1091: The limit for 850 MHz mobile operations where no routine evaluation is required is: 1.5W ERP The limit for 1700 / 1900 MHz mobile operations where no routine evaluation is required is: 3W EIRP Max permissive power according to §24.232 : 2W EIRP Max permissive power according to §§22.913 (a): 7W ERP FCC-ID QHC-I210G24 IC-ID (Industry Canada) 4393B-I210G24 For the unit tested by Cetecom Inc., the power density at a distance of 20cm can be deducted as follows- Operation in cellular band (824-849 MHz) EIRP= 32.5+2.14= 34.64 dBm= 2910.7 mW Power density= EIRP*DutyCycle/(4πR 2 ) = 2910.7*0.5/(4*π*20 2 ) = 0.29 mW/cm 2 where duty cycle is 0.5 (worst case) and R is 20cm. The power density limit for 850 band operation is 0.55 mW/cm 2 . Hence the device is compliant with the rules on RF exposure. Operation in PCS band (1850-1910 MHz) EIRP= 30.00 dBm= 1000 mW Power density= EIRP*DutyCycle/(4πR 2 ) = 1000*0.5/(4*π*20 2 ) = 0.10 mW/cm 2 where duty cycle is 0.5 (worst case) and R is 20cm. The power density limit for 1900 band operation is 1 mW/cm 2 . Hence the device is compliant with the rules on RF exposure. Operation in Zigbee mode (2.4GHz) EIRP= 19.53 dBm= 89.74 mW Power density= EIRP/(4πR 2 ) = 89.74/(4*π*20 2 ) = 0.018 mW/cm 2 R is 20cm. The power density limit for 2.4Ghz band operation is 1 mW/cm 2 . Hence the device is compliant with the rules on RF exposure. FCC-ID QHC-I210G24 IC-ID (Industry Canada) 4393B-I210G24 Compliance with MPE limits can be guaranteed as the calculation below shows: 850 MHz frequency band Maximum output power considerations: Mode Maximum conducted output power (dBm) Maximum conducted output power (mW) Duty cycle Equivalent conducted output power (Maximum conducted output power x duty cycle) (mW) GSM 33.03 2009.0 25% 502.27 P Maximum power input to the antenna: 502.27 mW R Distance: 20 cm S MPE limit for uncontrolled exposure: 0,57 mW/cm 2 G 1 Antenna gain (dBi) to comply with MPE limits: 7.47 dBi ERP power limit according to §2.1091: 1,5 W ERP G 2 Antenna gain (dBi) to comply with ERP limits: 6.90 dBi (ERP = Equivalent conducted output power x Antenna gain / 1,64) ERP power limit according to §22.913: 7 W ERP G 3 Antenna gain (dBi) to comply with ERP limits: 7.57 dBi (ERP = Maximum conducted output power x Antenna gain / 1,64) G 850 MHz band Min (G 1 , G 2, G 3 ) 6.90 dBi Therefore the maximum antenna gain for mobile operation to comply with MPE and ERP limits shall not exceed 6.90 dBi. FCC-ID QHC-I210G24 IC-ID (Industry Canada) 4393B-I210G24 1900 MHz frequency band Maximum output power considerations: Mode Maximum conducted output power (dBm) Maximum conducted output power (mW) Duty cycle Equivalent conducted output power (Maximum conducted output power x duty cycle) (mW) GSM 30.17 1039.9 25% 259.98 P Maximum power input to the antenna: 259.98 mW R Distance: 20 cm S MPE limit for uncontrolled exposure: 1 mW/cm 2 G 1 Antenna gain (dBi) to comply with MPE limits: 12.85 dBi EIRP power limit according to §2.1091: 3 W EIRP G 2 Antenna gain (dBi) to comply with ERP limits: 12.77 dBi (EIRP = Equivalent conducted output power x Antenna gain ) EIRP power limit according to §24.232: 2 W EIRP G 3 Antenna gain (dBi) to comply with EIRP limits: 2.83 dBi (EIRP = Maximum conducted output power x Antenna gain) G 1900 MHz band Min (G 1 , G 2, G 3 ) 2.83 dBi Therefore the maximum antenna gain for mobile operation to comply with MPE and ERP limits shall not exceed 2.83 dBi. FCC-ID QHC-I210G24 IC-ID (Industry Canada) 4393B-I210G24 Prediction for Simultaneous Transmission The MPE limit was made using a separation distance of 1 cm to represent the worse case.
