3.0 Individual SAR Evaluation
Portable RF exposure evaluation has been completed based on SAR measurements on a
representative PIFA antenna in a representative notebook computer. Integrations that provided
≥
2.5cm of separation distance between the edge of the WWAN antenna and the end user
orientated at 90 degrees as illustrated in Figure 1-1 and 1-2 do not require additional SAR testing.
The measured SAR value at 2.5cm was 0.374W/kg.
As indicated in KDB 447498 section 2 a), i) when SAR values are <0.4W/kg for a conservative
exposure measurement the devices can be used in portable host platforms with no restrictions.
These instructions are restricted to laptop and notebook type devices. Please refer to section 4.0
for collocation guidelines.
