This part of IEC 63424 describes the methods for validating dynamic power control and (dynamic) exposure time-averaging (DPC-ETA) algorithms used in RF modem chipsets of wireless devices. The DPC-ETA implementations are exposure-based, where SAR is time310 averaged according to power recorded by the RF modem. Time-averaging windows up to six minutes consistent with applicable SAR limits and regulatory policies are considered for frequencies up to 6 GHz. The DPC-ETA power control parameters are established based on SAR compliance results with all relevant design and operating tolerances taken into consideration. The device output power is controlled by DPC-ETA to maintain SAR compliance in real-time. While SAR compliance is evaluated independently by applying IEC/IEEE 62209- 1528:2020 [1]1, this document contains information for algorithm validation. Quasi-static and dynamic power control test sequences are described in this document for algorithm validation. The test sequences are sent from a radio communication tester (RCT) and DPC-ETA responses are measured with conducted and radiated power measurement methods to confirm algorithm functionality. Test sequences for wireless configurations that need validation, including wireless mode transitions, call drop, handover, discontinuous transmission, and simultaneous transmission are described. Considerations for measurement automation to acquire time-aligned results for correlation with power changes in the test sequences are provided. DPC-ETA algorithms are validated by correlating the normalized power measurement results with the expected behaviours of an implementation for the applied test sequences. The procedures in this document also support algorithm validation of modular transmitters using an appropriate test platform. Guidance for using SAR methods in place of radiated power measurements and capacitive proximity sensor triggering with time-averaged detection are also included.
