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 in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g)
of matter. This measurement is used
to determine whether a wireless phone
complies with safety guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my
exposure to radiofrequency energy from
my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products - and
at this point we do not know that there
is - it is probably very small. But if you are
concerned about avoiding even potential
risks, you can take a few simple steps to
minimize your exposure to radiofrequency
energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in
how much exposure a person receives,
reducing the amount of time spent using a
wireless phone will reduce RF exposure. If
you must conduct extended conversations
by wireless phone every day, you could place
more distance between your body and the
