12、accordance with the standard IEC 62311 and its European equivalent EN 62311. For convenience of the reader, in the remainder of this ECMA TR reference will be made to both standards as follows: IEC/EN 62311. The standard IEC/EN 62311 is a generic standard that is applicable for all electrical and el
13、ectronic equipment that are not covered by a specific EMF product standard. Several EMF standards exist for various categories of electronic products. However, specifically for MME, no product standard is currently available. Hence, the standard IEC/EN 62311 should be the applicable one for MME. Due
14、 to its generic nature however, IEC/EN 62311 does not provide specific assessment methods for every particular technology. Therefore, it is the purpose of this TR to provide specific guidance on how to apply IEC/EN 62311 in case of MME. This Ecma Technical Report has been adopted by the General Asse

16、(MME) in the scope of IEC/EN 62311 for which no product standard is available. MME may be powered by the mains power supply, by batteries or by any other electrical power source. The MME may also be connected to wired or wireless telecommunication networks. They may contain intentional radiators (li
17、ke Wi-Fi or GSM) for wireless network connections. The MMEs are considered general public use. Hence, for the purpose of this technical report the EMF exposure limits for general public will be applied (see Annex B of this TR). This document is not meant to provide new EMF exposure limits in additio
18、n to those referenced in IEC/EN 62311. This TR provides guidance on the application of IEC/EN 62311 with practical and specific methods to show compliance with the exposure limits for MME. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this documen

28、interfaces between the parts of the MME, the connecting cables and the interfaces to associated equipment which is preferably located outside the test area. 3.3 Assessment distance distance from the MME at which the EMF assessment is performed. 3.4 Assessment surface area, i.e. surfaces around the M

38、hrough its interfaces. Non-intentional emission may be 50 Hz harmonics through the mains, broadband noise through the mains and other interfaces, clock frequencies and their harmonics emitted though interfaces or through the free-space around the MME. Non-intentional emissions of MME are limited thr

Certain functions or technologies integrated in the MME may cause intentional em
40、issions. One can think of e.g. a WLAN transmit module, Bluetooth or DECT.

41、s and narrowband intentional radiators EMF assessment does not only depend on the type of emission of certain MME but also on the exposure distance of a human being from such equipment. Therefore, the assessment distance and surface or position has to be selected for an MME before starting the actua
42、l assessment. Annex A is devoted to selection of the assessment distance, surface and position Moreover, if multiple wireless technologies are implemented in an MME, the exposure assessment needs to consider the result of all intentional radiators together (see 7.3). Summarizing, the following prope
43、rties of an MME are key for an EMF assessment. - The type of intentional emissions generated by the MME. - The exposure distance of a human being from the MME. - The number of intentional radiators implemented in the same MME. Considering these properties, the standard IEC/EN 62311 allows the identi
44、fication of the following four scenarios. 1. Equipment from which non-intentional emissions can be considered inherently compliant with the applicable EMF exposure limits. Examples of this equipment are given in clause 7.2 of IEC/EN 62311 (wrist watches, ADSL modems, computers, telecommunication equ
45、ipment or hi-fi systems). Therefore, the great majority of MME can be considered as such. Clause 10 of this TR provides guidance for this kind of equipment. NOTE This consideration is also supported by ITU in recommendation ITU-T K.52 10. 2. Equipment from which non-intentional emissions potentially
46、 need further assessment to show compliance with the applicable EMF exposure limits. Due to their technological nature, in general MME are not likely Frequency Emission level at a certain location Narrowband emission from non-intentional 6 Ecma International 2009 All rights reservedment. to be consi
47、dered under this kind of equipment. However, in cases where the nature of the MME is such that manufacturers know beforehand that relevant EMF emission might occur, this TR provides in Clause 11 guidance to perform the EMF assess3. Equipment from which intentional emissions are below the low-power e

Equipment from which intentional emissions are above the low-power exclusion level and therefore need further EMF assessment. Details on how to perform such assessment can be found in clause 11 of this TR. 7
49、 Selection of compliance criteria This clause provides guidance related to the selection of compliance criteria for the EMF assessment of MME as reflected in clause 4 of IEC/EN 62311. 7.1 General Compliance with EMF basic restrictions and/or reference levels has to be proven by performing an exposure assessment over the MME. Compliance criteria (or the appropriate set of applicable exposure limits) must be selected for the MME under consideration.
