where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter
In watts (W) according to the. transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey should be less than the compliance  level in each frequency range
Interference may occur In the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

NOTE I At 80 MHz end 800 MHz. the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Model Number or Type Number – by the manufacturer is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Model Number or Type Number – by the manufacturer should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Model Number or Type Number – by the manufacturer.
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than [Vi] V/m.

The Model Number or Type Number – by the manufacturer is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated, RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Model Number or Type Number – by the manufacturer can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Model Number or Type Number – by the manufacturer as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

The rated maximum output power of transmitter W| Separation distance according to the frequency of transmitter
---|---
150 kHz to 80 MHz
d = 1,2√p| 80 MHz to 800 MHz
