Ionization only occurs with very high levels of electromagnetic energy such as X rays and gamma rays Often the term radiation is used when discussing ionizing radiation such as that associated with nuclear power plants The energy levels associated with radiofrequency energy including both radio waves and microwaves are not great enough to cause the ionization of atoms and molecules Therefore RF e...

Commission FCC All phones that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure FCC relies on FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networks rely upon While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones themselves the RF exposures tha...
