Notes:
The
‘Peak Power Density’ values shown above assume a 100 percent duty cycle modulation of the RF power amplifier
(BUC) at its maximum possible output power. No satellite network is ever operated at this extreme level. The ‘Nominal
Power Density’ values shown above, represent operation with a 10 percent duty cycle modulation and a 2 dB power
backoff (0.1 x 0.63). These are realistic values for operation within a network that accommodates multiple users.
The FCC has defined, in document 'OET Bulletin 65', the maximum safe exposure level for controlled environments to be
5 mW/cm^2 and the maximum safe exposure level for uncontrolled environments to be 1 mW/cm^2. Clearly, the
‘Typical
BUC Power’ installations meet this requirement with a safety margin of 10. Furthermore, any system equipped with a
BUC or RF power amplifier equal to or less than the 'Max Safe BUC Power' stated above, is guaranteed to be safe
outside the confines of the radome walls.
By contrast, an analog cellular telephone, with a peak power output of 2 Watts produces a power density, averaged over
the area of your head of 20 mW/cm^2. Localized power densities, i.e. next to your ear, can approach 200 mW/cm^2.
Digital cellular telephones typically operate with a duty cycle between 1 and 5 percent making the averaged power density
equal to or slightly below the FCC defined safe level. Compared to the table values above, a cellular telephone produces
between 10 and 100 times the RF exposure level of a typical Sea Tel satellite terminal.
