SAR requirements specific to portable mobiles
Mobile phones, PDAs or other portable transmitters and receivers incorporating a GSM module must
be in accordance with the guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency energy. This requires
the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of portable EHS6 based applications to be evaluated and approved
for compliance with national and/or international regulations.
Since the SAR value varies significantly with the individual product design, manufacturers are advised
to submit their product for approval if designed for portable use. For European markets the relevant
directives are mentioned below. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the final product to
verify whether or not further standards, recommendations or directives are in force outside these
areas.

restrictions related to human exposure to electromagnetic fields (300MHz - 3GHz)
Please note that SAR requirements are specific only for portable devices and not for mobile devices
as defined below:
Portable device:
A portable device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used so that the
radiating structure(s) of the device is/are within 20 centimeters of the user´s body.
Mobile device:
A mobile device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used in other than fixed
locations and to generally be used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20
