Back

The Department of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada is seeking comments on the following consultation: RSS-102 SPR-APD, issue 1, “Supplementary Procedure for Assessing Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) and Absorbed Power Density (APD) Compliance of Portable Devices in the 6 GHz Band (5925-7125 MHz)”. This compliance procedure describes the technical requirements and processes to be followed when demonstrating compliance with specific absorption rate (SAR) limits and absorbed power density (APD) limits for portable devices operating in the 6 GHz band (e.g. RLAN device in the 5925-7125 MHz) that are subject to RSS-248, newly published.

Comments from the interested parties will be received until January 31st, 2022. The full details of the text under consultation are attached to this publication.
