limit takes into consideration
the body’s ability to remove
heat from the tissues that
absorb energy from the wireless
phone and is set well below
levels known to have effects.
Manufacturers of wireless
phones must report the RF
exposure level for each model
of phone to the FCC. The FCC
website
(

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety

)

gives directions for locating 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
