. 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 for measuring the radiofrequency
energy (rF) 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 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 in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. this
measurement is used to determine whether a wireless phone
complies with safety guidelines.
. 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
