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 ALS1-US 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 US 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. 

ES 59005/ANSI C95.1 Considerations for evaluation of human exposure to electromagnetic

fields (EMFs) from mobile telecommunication equipment (MTE) in the

frequency range 30MHz - 6GHz 

IMPORTANT:

Manufacturers of portable applications based on ALS1-US modules are required to have their 

final product certified and apply for their own FCC Grant and Industry Canada Certificate relat-

ed to the specific portable mobile.
