In both cases, 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 exposure Limit for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or 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 phones to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection to the public and to account for any variations in measurements. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels 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. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the governmentadopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.

Engineers (IEEE). In both cases,
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 exposure Limit for wireless
mobile phones employs a unit
of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or 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 phones to
comply with a safety limit of 1.6
watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The
FCC exposure limit incorporates
a substantial margin of safety
to give additional protection to
the public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
Tests for SAR are conducted
using standard operating
positions specified by the FCC
with the phone transmitting at
its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands.
Although SAR is determined
at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the
phone while operating can be
well below the maximum value.
Because the phone is designed
to operate at multiple power
levels 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.
Before a phone model is available
for sale to the public, it must be
tested and certified to the FCC
that it does not exceed the limit
established by the government-
adopted requirement for
safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and
locations (e.g., at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by
the FCC for each model.
This device was tested for
