the recommendations were developed by
scientific and engineering experts drawn
from industry, government, and academia
after extensive reviews of the scientific
literature related to the biological effects of
RF energy.
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for
wireless mobile devices employs a unit
of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a
measure of the rate of absorption of RF
energy by the human body expressed in
units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC
requires wireless devices to comply with a
safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/
kg).
The FCC SAR limit incorporates a
substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection to the public
and to account for any variations in
measurements.
SAR tests are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC
with the mobile device transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the mobile
device while operating can be well below
the maximum reported value. This is
because the mobile device is designed to
operate at multiple power levels so as to
use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a
wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output of the mobile device.
Before a new model mobile device is
available for sale to the public, it must be
tested and certified to the FCC that it does
not exceed the SAR limit established by the
FCC. Tests for each model mobile device
