result of this work has been
the development of a detailed
agenda of research needs that
has driven the establishment of
new research programs around
the world. The project has also
helped develop a series of
public information documents
on EMF issues. The FDA and the
Cellular Telecommunications &
Internet Association (CTIA) have
a formal Cooperative Research
and Development Agreement
(CRADA) to do research on
wireless phone safety. The
FDA provides the scientific
oversight, obtaining input from
experts in government, industry,
and academic organizations.
CTIA-funded research is
conducted through contracts
with independent investigators.
The initial research will include
both laboratory studies and
studies of wireless phone users.
The CRADA will also include a
broad assessment of additional
research needs in the context of
the latest research developments
around the world.
7. How can I find out how much
radio frequency energy
exposure I can get by using
my wireless phone?
All phones sold in the United
States must comply with Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) guidelines that limit radio
frequency energy (RF) exposures.
The FCC established these
guidelines in consultation with
the FDA and the other federal
health and safety agencies.
The FCC limit for RF exposure
from wireless telephones is
set at a Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per
kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC
limit is consistent with the
safety standards developed by
the Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and
the National Council on Radiation
