Safety
Frequency (RF) energy
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 phones 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
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 (RF) energy exposure
from wireless phones and other
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
