for exposure to radiofrequency
(RF) energy set by the Federal

mobile phones employs a unit of

Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions
specified by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency
bands.
Although SAR is determined at the

actual SAR level of the phone while
operating can be well below the
maximum value. Because the phone
