In accordance with this section, and also Section 2.1091, this device has been defined as a mobile device whereby a distance of 20 cm can normally be maintained between the user and the device. In accordance with Section 1.1310 the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits for the General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure of 1.0 mW/cm 2 have been applied. The maximum distance from the antenna at which the MPE is met or exceeded is calculated from the equation relating field strength in V/m, transmit power in watts, transmit antenna gain and separation distance in metres: E, V/m = ( (30 * P * G)) / d Power density, mW/cm 2 = E 2 /3770 E for MPE: 1 = E 2 /3770 E = 1*3770 E = 61.4 V/m The highest radiated power measured was 13.0 dBm = 20 mW Therefore: E =  (30 * P * G) / d d =  (30 * P * G) / E d =  (30*0.020) / 61.4 d = 0.013 m or 1.3 cm This device will comply providing a safe distance of 20.0 cm is specified. Result: Complies

TEST SAMPLE DESCRIPTION Device Operational Description The router forms part of a wireless sensor system. It creates a link between a wireless sensor and a base station (central Ethernet enabled access point). The device forwards any RF packets received on to the appropriate network node, which can be a sensor, a base station or another router. The RF communications are driven by the CC2430 microprocessor. Under normal operation the device will send a MAC acknowledgement response to any packets received. A low noise amplifier (LNA) and power amplifier stages are included within the device to ensure maximum range is achieved. The LNA is driven by a MAX2644, the PA by a MAX2242. Testing was carried out using a supplied EMC tester programme which established a link between a supplied sensor and a computer. For testing purposes a representative AC power supply was used to supply 12 Vdc to the device. The device is capable of operating between 2400 – 2460 MHz in 5 MHz steps. Testing has therefore been carried out at 2405 MHz, 2440 MHz and 2460 MHz. IEEE 802.15.4 using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) with CSMA and OQPSK modulation is used.
