SAR INFORMATION
FCC HEARING-AID
COMPATIBILITY (HAC)
REGULATIONS FOR
WIRELESS DEVICES
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal
Communications Commission (FCC)
Report and Order in WT Docket
01-309 modified the exception of
wireless phones under the Hearing Aid
Compatibility Act of 1988 (HAC Act)
to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing-aids. The intent
of the HAC Act is to ensure reasonable
access to telecommunications services for
persons with hearing disabilities.
While some wireless phones are used
near some hearing devices (hearing aids
and cochlear implants), users may detect
a buzzing, humming, or whining noise.
Some hearing devices are more immune
than others to this interference noise,
and phones also vary in the amount of
interference they generate.
