the FCC identification number on
your phone so you can find your
phone’s RF exposure level in the
online listing.
8. What has the FDA done to
measure the Radio Frequency
energy coming from wireless
phones?
The Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is
developing a technical standard for
measuring the Radio Frequency (RF)
energy 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.
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 (RF) energy. 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 conduct
extended conversations by wireless
