Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of Mobile Phones
This model phone N-05A meets the MIC’s
*1
technical regulation for exposure to radio waves.
The technical regulation established permitted levels of radio frequency energy, based on
standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The regulation employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit is 2 watts/kilogram (W/kg)
*2
averaged
over ten grams of tissue. The limit includes a substantial safety margin designed to assure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The value of the limit is equal to the
international guidelines recommended by ICNIRP
*3
.
All phone models should be confirmed to comply with the regulation, before they are available
for sale to the public. The highest SAR value for this model phone N-05A is 0.535 W/kg. It was
taken by the Telecom Engineering Center (TELEC), a Registered Certification Agency on the
Radio Law. The test for SAR was conducted in accordance with the MIC testing procedure
using standard operating positions with the phone transmitting at its highest permitted power
level in all tested frequency bands. While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the MIC’s technical regulation. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR of the phone during
operation can be well below the maximum value.
