investigators around the world to ensure that
high priority animal studies are conducted to
address important questions about the effects
of exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy.
The FDA has been a leading participant in
the World Health Organization International
Electro Magnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its
inception in 1996. An influential result of this
work has been the development of a detailed
agenda of research needs that has driven
the establishment of new research programs
around the world. The project has also
helped develop a series of public information
documents on EMF issues.
The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications
& Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal
Cooperative Research And Development
Agreement (CRADA) to do research on
wireless phone safety. The FDA provides
the scientific oversight, obtaining input from
experts in government, industry, and academic
organizations. CTIA-funded research is
conducted through contracts with independent
investigators. The initial research will include
both laboratory studies and studies of
wireless phone users. The CRADA will also
include a broad assessment of additional
research needs in the context of the latest
research developments around the world.
7. How can I find out how much Radio
Frequency energy exposure I can get
by using my wireless phone?
All phones sold in the United States must
comply with Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit Radio
Frequency (RF) energy exposures. The FCC
established these guidelines in consultation
with the FDA and the other federal health
and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF
exposure from wireless phones is set at
a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6
watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC
limit is consistent with the safety standards
developed by the Institute of Electrical
and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the
National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement. The exposure limit takes into
consideration the body’s ability to remove
heat from the tissues that absorb energy from
the wireless phone and is set well below
levels known to have effects. Manufacturers
of wireless phones must report the RF
exposure level for each model of phone to the
FCC. The FCC website (http://www.fcc.gov/
oet/rfsafety) gives directions for locating the
FCC identification number on your phone so
