1.8.3 Power Density Exposure Limit
The applicable power density exposure limit from the documents referenced above is:
•
10
W/m
2
for RF energy in the 2.4-, 5.2-, 5.4-, 5.8- and 5.9 GHz frequency bands.
Peak power density in the far field of a radio frequency point source is calculated as follows:
Equation 1 - Peak power density in the far field
Where
Rearranging terms to solve for distance yields:
S
power density in W/m

P=
Maximum Average transmit power capability of the radio, in
G=
total Tx gain as a factor, converted from dB
d
distance from point source, in m
