Performance and Safety Guidelines 155
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your phone complies with
updated NCRP standards described below.
In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the
American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for
safety levels with respect to human exposure to
RF signals. More than 120 scientists, engineers
and physicians from universities, government
health agencies and industries developed this
updated standard after reviewing the available
body of research. In 1993, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) adopted
this updated standard in a regulation. In
August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard
consisting of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard
and the guidelines published by the National
Council of Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP).
