Page 42 of 45 

The “Recommended Distances” are chosen to give significant compliance margin in all cases. 
They are also chosen so that an OFDM module has the same exposure distance as a Canopy 
module, to simplify communicating and heeding exposure distances in the field. 

These are conservative distances: 

  They are along the beam direction (the direction of greatest energy). Exposure to the 

sides and back of the module will be significantly less. 

  They meet sustained exposure limits for the general population (not just short term 

occupational exposure limits), with considerable margin. 

  The calculated compliance distance 

d

 is overestimated because the far-field equation 

models the antenna as a point source and neglects the physical dimension of the 
antenna.
