For Your Safety
"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 on the
same phone. SAR is
the measurement of
36
the amount of energy
absorbed in tissue,
either by the whole body
or a small part of the
body. It is measured in
watts/kg (or milliwatts/g)
of matter. This
measurement is used
to determine whether a
wireless phone complies
with safety guidelines.
