1.3.2 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 BG2-E/BG2-W 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 and US
3
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.
