    Applies to broadcast transmitter operating in the frequency range 30 MHz to 40 GHz when put on the market.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This standard applies to a broadcast transmitter operating in the frequency range 30 MHz to 40 GHz when put on the market. The objective of the standard is to specify, for such equipment operating in typical conditions, the method for assessment of compliance distances according to the basic restrictions (directly or indirectly via compliance with reference levels) related to human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields.
