All I'm attempting to demonstrate the compliance of our fixed wireless access system with the human exposure to EMF requirements of Article 3.1a of the R&TTE directive:
The applicable standard, EN50385, requires the field strengths to be measured/calculated according to EN50383 against the limits detailed in 1999/519/EC. My reading of 1999/519/EC is that the maximum allow E-filed is 61 V/m for 2-300 GHz. I calculate that our subscriber equipment is generating a field of 10 V/m at 0.5m distance. So, so save measuring/calculating near field values, can I just add to the user manual that you should not stand within 0.5m of the front of the equipment? (The antenna wouldn't work so well if you did, and it would be difficult to anyway as it typically pole/chimney mounted) regards Charlie Blackham Approvals Manager Airspan Communications This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
