INSTALLATION NOTES

For  amateur  base  station  installations  it  is  recom-
mended that the forwards clearance in front of the an-
tenna array is calculated relative to the EIRP (Effective 
Isotropic Radiated Power). The clearance height below 
the antenna array can be determined in most cases 
from the RF power at the antenna input terminals.

Different exposure limits have been recommended for 
different frequencies, a relative table shows a guide-
line for installation considerations.

Below 30 MHz, the recommended limits are specified 

in terms of V/m or A/m fields as they are likely to fall 

within the near-field region. Similarly, the antennas 
may be physically short in terms of electrical length 
and  that  the  installation  will  require  some  antenna 
matching device which can create local, high intensity 
magnetic fields. Analysis of such installations is best 
considered  in  association  with  published  guidance 
notes such as the FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 
and its annexes relative to amateur transmitter instal-
lations. The EC recommended limits are almost identi-
cal to the FCC specified ‘uncontrolled’ limits and tables 
exist that show pre-calculated safe distances for differ-
ent antenna types for different frequency bands. Fur-
ther information can be found at http://www.arrl.org/.

• Typical amateur radio installation

Exposure distance assumes that the predominant ra-
diation pattern is forward and that radiation vertically 
downward is at unity gain (sidelobe suppression is 
equal to main lobe gain). This is true of almost every 
gain antenna today. Exposed persons are assumed 
to be beneath the antenna array and have a typical 
height of 1.8 m.

The figures assume the worst-case emission of con-
stant carrier.

For the bands 10 MHz and higher the following power 
density limits have been recommended:
  10–144 MHz 

2 W/sq m

EIRP clearance heights by frequency band

 

1 Watts  2.1 m

 

10 Watts  2.8 m

 

25 Watts  3.4 m

 

100 Watts 

5 m

 

1000 Watts 

12 m

Forward clearance, EIRP by frequency band

 

100 Watts 

2 m

 

1000 Watts  6.5 m

  10,000 Watts 

20 m

  100,000 Watts 

65 m

In all cases any possible risk depends on the trans-
mitter being activated for long periods. (actual recom-
mendation limits are specified as an average during 6 
minutes) Normally the transmitter is not active for long 
periods of time. Some radio licenses will require that a 
timer circuit automatically cuts the transmitter after 1–
2 minutes etc.

Similarly some types of emission, i.e., SSB, CW, AM 
etc. have a lower ‘average’ output power and the as-
sessed risk is even lower.
