Recommended Separation Distance Between Portable and Mobile RF
Communications Equipment and the System
The equipment is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated
RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the equipment can help
prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between
portable and mobile RF communication equipment (transmitters) and the equipment as
recommended below, according to the maximum output of the communications
equipment.
Rated Maximum Output
Power of Transmitter (P)
For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation dis-
tance (d) in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmit-
ter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the
transmitter manufacturer.
Note
At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects, and people.
