the user, the exposure
to RF is drastically lower
because a person’s RF
exposure decreases
rapidly with increasing
distance from the
source. The so-called
“cordless phones,”
which have a base
unit connected to the
telephone wiring in a
house, typically operate
at far lower power levels,
and thus produce RF
exposures far below the
FCC safety limits.
4. What are the results
of the research done
already?
The research done
thus far has produced
confl icting results, and
many studies have
suffered from fl aws in
their research methods.
Animal experiments
investigating the effects
of Radio Frequency
(RF) energy exposures
characteristic of wireless
phones have yielded
confl icting results
that often cannot be
repeated in other labo-
ratories. A few animal
studies, however, have
suggested that low levels
of RF could accelerate
the development of
cancer in laboratory
animals. However, many
of the studies that
showed increased tumor
