Rate (SAR) in the Human
Body Due to Wireless
Communications Devices:
Experimental Techniques,’
sets forth the fi rst consistent
test methodology for
measuring the rate at which
RF is deposited in the
heads of wireless phone
users. The test method
uses a tissuesimulating
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 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.
9. What steps can I take
to reduce my exposure
to radiofrequency
energy from my
wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these
products - and at this
point we do not know that
there is - it is probably
very small. But if you are
concerned about avoiding
even potential risks, you can
take a few simple steps to
minimize your exposure to
radiofrequency energy (RF).
Since time is a key factor
in how much exposure a
person receives, reducing
the amount of time spent
using a wireless phone will
reduce RF exposure. If you
must conduct extended
