- C.By measurement of field strength using calibrated equipment
- D.All these choices are correct (correct answer)
WhyStation compliance with FCC RF exposure regulations can be determined by calculation based on FCC OET Bulletin 65, by computer modeling, or by measurement of field strength using calibrated equipment. FCC Part 97.13(c)(1) permits demonstrating RF exposure compliance through calculation using OET Bulletin 65's methods, through computer modeling, or through direct field-strength measurement with calibrated equipment, any of these recognized approaches satisfies the rule, answer D.
