  • International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety (IEEE ICES), Technical Committee 34 is currently reviewing FDTD, FEM, finite integration technique (FIT) and other potentially valuable computational techniques for determining SAR to develop standardized methods of application. Similar to our consideration whether FEM may be used under Section 1.1307(b)(2), we also consider particularly whether FEM is satisfactory to meet the requirements of Section 95.1221, which provides that MedRadio equipment be evaluated for radiofrequency radiation exposure compliance in accordance with Sections 1.1307(b)(2) and 2.1093. The Commission's prior decision adopting the rules in Part 95 for MedRadio acknowledged that techniques other than FDTD for evaluating RF exposure for equipment authorization purposes existed, but recognized a lack of sufficient notice on the subject, and deferred full consideration

  • shipping container for the transmitter, in lieu of being placed directly on the transmitter. Section 95.1219 is revised to read as follows: § 95.1219 Marketing limitations. Transmitters intended for operation in the MedRadio Service may be marketed and sold only for the permissible communications described in § 95.1209 of this part. Subpart I is amended by adding a new section 95.1221 to read as follows: § 95.1221 RF exposure. MedRadio medical implant or medical body-worn transmitters (as defined in appendix 1 to subpart E of part 95 of this chapter) are subject to the radiofrequency radiation exposure requirements specified in §§ 1.1307 and 2.1093 of this chapter, as appropriate. Applications for equipment authorization of implant devices operating under this section must

For example, under the MedRadio rules, each transmitter must include a statement that ``This transmitter is authorized by rule under the MedRadio Service. This transmitter must not cause harmful interference to stations authorized to operate on a primary basis in

Because MMNs are treated as part of the MedRadio Service and MedRadio is listed in these sections, we do not need to amend these rules. ARRL Comments at 10. , supra.

  • also govern existing MedRadio devices. We also noted that the Commission has an open RF safety proceeding (ET Docket No. 03-137) in which it proposed to conduct a comprehensive review of its rules regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic fields. Thus, the NPRM only sought comment on whether MBAN transmitters should be deemed portable devices. We will apply existing Section 95.1221 of our rules to MBAN devices, which will classify them as portable devices that are subject to Sections 2.1093 and 1.1307 of our rules. The record reflects support for treating MBAN devices in this manner. We see no reason to treat MBAN devices differently than existing MedRadio devices with respect to RF safety matters.
