Radio Frequency Exposure Evaluation Requirements
In general, for the United States market, the embedded modules are treated as “mobile
devices” as per FCC CFR47 paragraph 2.1091.
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 cm is normally maintained between the transmitter’s radiating structure(s) and
the body of the user or nearby persons.” The antenna type used for the radio frequency
exposure evaluation must be specified in the documentation and sold with the module. If
the module is used with a different antenna type and/or in a design where the separation
distance of 20 cm is not normally maintained, the radio frequency exposure evaluation
should be repeated for the new configuration. In some cases the module use may fit the
definition of “portable devices” as per FCC CFR47 paragraph 2.1093.
Some devices are not subject to radio frequency exposure evaluation prior to
equipment authorization, depending on the transmitter power level and
frequency band of operation.
