On October 06th, 2020, ANATEL opened a public consultation for the update of Annex I to Act No. 955, of February 8, 2018, which provides for the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Testing Procedures for Telecommunications Products. The review is important due to the development of new transmission technologies for portable products and their impacts on the assessment of the compliance of the human exposure limit to electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields in the radio frequency range, using the Time- Period Averaging Specific Absorption Rate (TAS) technique, in order to contemplate the test procedures for the evaluation of the conformity of products that make the use of this technology. In addition, the proposal aims to review other topics of the test procedures for SAR assessment in portable terminals for updating the regulatory references, expanding the range of evaluation of the radio spectrum, and adapting content t align with current national and international standards.
The date for final comments is November 04th, 2020. We can help you contribute, please contact us.
