energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of
the U.S. Government.
These FCC RF exposure limits are
derived from the recommendations of
two expert organizations: the National
Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurement (NCRP) and the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE). In both cases, the
recommendations were developed by
scientific and engineering experts drawn
from industry, government, and
academia after extensive reviews of the
scientific literature related to the
biological effects of RF energy.
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for
wireless mobile phones employs a unit
of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a
measure of the rate of absorption of RF
energy by the human body expressed in
units of watts per kilogram (W/kg). The
FCC requires wireless phones to comply
with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per
kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
