7. How can I find out how
much radiofrequency 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
radiofrequency 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
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 radiofrequency
energy coming from wireless
phones?
The Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is
developing a technical standard
