47 CFR 95.2569: MedRadio field strength measurements.
Where this section sits in the code
- Title 47—Telecommunication
- CHAPTER I—FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
- SUBCHAPTER D—SAFETY AND SPECIAL RADIO SERVICES
- PART 95—PERSONAL RADIO SERVICES
- Subpart I—Medical Device Radio Communications Service
Compliance with MedRadio equivalent isotropic radiated power (M-EIRP) limits can be determined by measuring the radiated field strength from the transmitter type, in accordance with the rules in this section.
(a) Radiated field strength values corresponding to the M-EIRP limits in § 95.2567 are given in the table in this paragraph, for an open area test site, and for a test site equivalent to free space, such as a fully anechoic test chamber. Field strength is measured at a distance of 3 meters from the equipment under test.
M-EIRP limit Open area (mV/m) Free space (mV/m)
1 mW 115.1 57.55
25 μW 18.2 9.1
250 nW 1.8 0.9
100 nW 1.2 0.6
(b) Compliance with the maximum transmitter power requirements in § 95.2567 is based on measurements using a peak detector function and measured over an interval of time when transmission is continuous and at its maximum power level. In lieu of using a peak detector function, measurement procedures that have been found to be acceptable to the FCC in accordance with § 2.947 of this chapter may be used to demonstrate compliance.
(c) For a MedRadio transmitter intended to be implanted in a human body, radiated emissions and M-EIRP measurements for transmissions by stations authorized under this section may be made in accordance with an FCC-approved human body simulator and test technique. Guidance regarding dielectric parameters for the tissue-equivalent material can be found in the Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) Laboratory Division Knowledge Database (KDB).
