Exposure to Radio
Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable
telephone is a lowpower radio
transmitter and receiver. When
it is ON, it receives and also
sends out radio frequency (RF)
signals.
In August, 1, the Federal
Communications Commissions
(FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels
for handheld wireless phones.
Those guidelines are consistent
with the safety standards
0
previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
ANSI C.1 (1) *
NCRP Report 8 (18)
ICNIRP (1)
Those standards were based
on comprehensive and
periodic evaluations of the
relevant scientific literature. For
example, over 10 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health
agencies, and industry reviewed
the available body of research
to develop the ANSI Standard
(C.1).
* American National Standards
Institute; National Council
on Radiation Protection and
Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection.
The design of your phone
complies with the FCC
guidelines (and those
standards).
