Safety
Protection and Measurement.
The exposure limit takes into
consideration the body's ability to
remove heat from the tissues that
absorb energy from the wireless
phone and is set well below
levels known to have effects.
Manufacturers of wireless phones
must report the RF exposure
level for each model of phone
to the FCC. The FCC website
(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ rfsafety)
gives directions for locating the
FCC identification number on
your phone so you can find your
phone's RF exposure level in the
online listing.
8. What has the FDA done to
measure the radio frequency
energy coming from wireless
phones?
The Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is
developing a technical standard
for measuring the radio frequency
energy (RF) exposure from
wireless phones and other
30
wireless handsets with the
participation and leadership of
FDA scientists and engineers.
The standard, "Recommended
Practice for Determining the
Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR) in the Human Body
Due to Wireless Communications
Devices: Experimental
Techniques," sets forth the first
consistent test methodology for
measuring the rate at which RF is
deposited in the heads of wireless
phone users.
The test method uses a tissue-
simulating model of the human
head. Standardized SAR test
methodology is expected to
greatly improve the consistency
of measurements made
at different laboratories on
the same phone. SAR is the
measurement of the amount of
energy absorbed in tissue, either
by the whole body or a small
part of the body. It is measured
