5.2 SAR requirements specific to portable mobiles
Mobile phones, PDAs or other portable transmitters and receivers incorporating a UMTS mod-
ule must be in accordance with the guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency energy.
This requires the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of portable ELS81-US 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 US-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.

ES 59005/ANSI C95.1 Considerations for evaluation of human exposure to Electromagnetic
Fields (EMFs) from Mobile Telecommunication Equipment (MTE) in the
frequency range 30MHz - 6GHz
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 radi-
ating structure(s) of the device is/are within 20 centimeters of the body of the user.
• 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
centimeters is normally maintained between the transmitter's radiating structure(s) and the
body of the user or nearby persons. In this context, the term ''fixed location'' means that the
device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved to another
location.
