(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.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my
exposure to radio frequency 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 radio frequency
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
