The RF power density limits according to Health Canada Safety Code 6, are shown in the table below:
The general equation for Occupational level:
RF power density = 0.6455 f
0.5
W/m
2
where, f = frequency in MHz.
The general equations for General population level:
For 100 to 300 MHz, RF power density = 1.291 W/m
2
and,
for 300 to 400 MHz, RF power density = 0.02619 f
0.6834
W/m
2
where, f = frequency in MHz.
Example
The safe distance from the antenna can be predicted using the equation:
where,
R = distance to centre of radiation in metres (m)
P = average power input to antenna in Watts (example, 100 W carrier with 95% modulation = 145 W)
G = antenna gain as a ratio (example, 2 dB = 10
2/10
= 1.585)
S = power density in W/m
2
.
Based on this formula and using a 2 dBi antenna, frequency of 118.000 MHz and a measured carrier power of
100 W, for occupational workers:
 The predicted safe distance from the centre of the radiation would be approximately 1.7 m.
For persons not classed as occupational workers, and including the general public:
 The minimum safe distance would be 3.8 m.
Note:
Safe distances are rounded up to the nearest 0.1 m.
