Use the following MPE Safe Distance calculation for other than 5W ERP antenna power:
Calculation Method for RF Safety Distance r:

S = PG/4Πr
=EIRP/4Πr
Where:
RF EXPOSURE DISTANCE LIMIT: r = (PG/4ΠS)
For General Population/ Uncontrolled Exposure:

S = 0.2

S = f/1500 in

frequency in MHz.
As an example, let us consider a case of minimum frequency f = 931.0125MHz, ERP RF power P =
5.0W:
ERP = 5000 mW = 10 log(5000) dBm = 37.0 dBm
S = 931.0125/1500
mW/cm
For General Population/bystanders: r = (ERP/4ПS)
The MPE safe distance is therefore at least 25.4cm (10.0").
ATTENTION!
The MOBEXCOM OCR must be restricted to occupational use only to satisfy FCC RF
Exposure requirements.
