Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 189 Specific Absor ption Rate s (SAR) f or Wir eless Phones The SAR is a value that corresponds to the r elative amount of RF energy absorbed by the user of a wire less hands et. The SAR v alue of a phone is the result of a n extensiv e testing, measuring and calculation process. It does not represen t how much RF the phone emits. All phone models ar e tested at their hi g hest value in s trict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantiall y less than the level reported to the FCC. This is because of a v ar iety of facto r s including its pr oximity to a base station antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each phone meets strict f edera l guidelines. V ariations in SARs do not r epresent a variation in saf ety . All phones must meet the f ederal standar d, which incorpor ates a substantial margin of saf e ty . As stated above, v ar iations in SAR va lues between d i fferent m odel phones do not mean var iations in saf ety . SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6 W/kg are considered saf e for use by the public. The highest reported SAR values of the PM-6225 by Nokia are: Amps mode (Part 22): Head: 0 .99 W/kg; Bod y-worn: 0.97 W/kg PCS mode (Part 24) : Head: 1.12 W/kg; Body-worn: 0.54 W/kg For bod y-worn operation, position the phone at least 7/8 inc h (2.2 centimeters) a way from y our body . FCC Radiofrequenc y Em ission This phone meets the FCC Radiofr equency Emission Guidelines. FCC ID number: QM NRH-27. More inf or mation on the phone's SAR can be f ound from the f o llowing FCC W ebsite: http://www .fcc.gov/oet/fccid .
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 190 Consumer Inf or mation on Wir eless Phones (The f ollowing inf ormation comes from a consumer inf ormation W ebsite jointl y sponsored by the U.S. Food and D r ug Administration (FDA) a nd the Feder al Communications Commission (FCC), entitled “Cell P hone F acts: Consumer Information on W ireless Ph ones. ” The information reproduced herein is dated J uly 29, 2003. F or furt her updates, please visit the W ebsite: http://www .fda.gov/cellphones/qa.html .) What is radiofrequency energy (RF)? Radiofrequency (RF) en ergy is another name for radio w aves. It is one f or m of electromagnetic energy that makes up the electromagnetic spectr um. Some of the other f or ms of energy in the elect roma gnetic spectrum are gamma ra ys, x- ra ys and light. Electromagnetic energy (or electromagnet ic radiation) consists of waves of electri c and magnetic ener gy moving tog ether (radiating) through space. The area where thes e wave s are found is called an electromagnetic field. Radio wa ves ar e created due to the mo veme nt of electrical ch arg es in antennas . As they are created, thes e waves r adiate a way fr om the antenna. All electromagnetic waves trav el at the sp eed of light. The major differences between the differ ent types of waves a re the distances cover ed by one cycle of the wav e and the number of waves that pa ss a certain poi n t during a set time period. The wavelength is the distance cov ered by one cycle of a wav e. The frequency is the n u mber of w aves passing a giv en point in one second. F or any electromagnetic wave, the wav elength multiplied b y the frequency equals the speed of light. The frequency of an RF sign al is usuall y expr essed in units called hertz (Hz). One Hz equals one wav e per second. One kilohert z (kHz) equals one thousand wav es per second, one megahertz (MHz) equals one million waves per second, and one gigahertz (GHz) equa ls one billion waves per second. RF energ y includes wave s with frequencies ranging from abo ut 3000 waves per second (3 kHz) to 300 billion waves per second (300 GHz). Microwav es are a subset of radio wav es that have fr eque ncies ranging from around 300 million wav es per second (300 MHz) to three billion waves per second (3 GHz). How is radiofrequency energy used? Probably the most important use of RF en er gy is for telecommunications. Radio and TV broadcasting, wireless phones, pagers, cordless phones, police and fire department radios, point-to-point links and satellite communications all rely on RF energy . Other uses of RF energy include microwav e ovens, radar , industrial heater s and sealers , and medical treatmen ts. RF energy , especially at microwav e frequencies, can heat water . Since most food has a high water content, microwav es can cook food quickl y . Radar relies on RF energ y to track cars and airplanes as w e ll as f or militar y applicat ions. Industrial heater s and sealer s use RF energy to mold plastic mater ials, gl ue wood products, seal leather items such as shoes and pocketbooks, and process f ood. Medical uses of RF energ y include pacemak er monitoring and programming .
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 191 How is radiofrequency radiation measured? RF wav es and RF fields have both electr ical and magnetic components. It is often convenient to e xpress the strength of the RF field in terms of each component. For e xample, the unit “volts pe r meter” (V/m) is used to measure the electric field strength, and the unit “amperes pe r meter” (A/m) is used to e xpress the magnetic field strength. An other common wa y to characterize an RF field is by means of the power dens ity . Pow er density is defined as power per unit area. For e xample, power density can be e xpressed in terms of milliwatts (one thousandth of a watt) per square centimeter (mW/cm2 or microwatts (one millionth of a watt) per square centimeter (µW/cm2). The quantity used to measure ho w much RF en erg y is actuall y a bsorbed by the body is called the Spec ific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR is a measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy . It is usually e xpressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg) or milliw atts per gram (mW/g). What biological effects can be caused by RF energy? The biological ef fects of radiofrequency energ y should not be confused with the ef f e cts from other types of electromagnetic energy . V er y high lev els of electromagnetic ener gy , such as is found in X-r ays and gamma ra ys can ionize biolog ical tissu es. Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped aw ay from their normal locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently damage biological tissues including DN A, the g enetic material. Ionization only oc curs w ith ver y high levels of electromagnetic energy such as X-ra ys and gamma rays. Often the term radiation is used when discussing ionizing radiation (suc h as that associated with nuclear pow e r plants). The energ y levels associated with radi ofrequen cy energ y , including both ra d io wav es and micro waves, ar e not great en ough to cause the ionization of atoms and molecules. Th erefore, RF energy is a type of non-io nizi ng radia tion. O ther types of non-ionizing radiation include visib le light, infrar ed radiation (heat) and other forms of electrom a gnetic radiation with re lativel y low freq uencies. Large amounts of RF energy can heat ti ssue. This can damage tissues and increase body temperatures. T wo areas of the body , the eyes and the testes, are particularl y vuln erable to RF heating because ther e is relativ ely little blood f low in them to carr y a way e xcess heat. The amount of RF radiation routinel y enco untered by the g eneral public is too low to produce significant heatin g or in creased bod y temperature. Still, some people have questions about the possible health effects of low levels of RF energy . It is generall y agreed that fur the r research is needed to determine what effects actually occur and whether they are dang erous to people. In the meantime, standards-setting organizations and gov er nment agencies are continuing to monitor the latest scient ific findings to determine whether chang es in safety limits are ne eded to protect human health. FD A, EP A and ot her US g overnment a g enci es responsible f or public health and safety ha ve work ed together and in connection with WHO to monitor developments and identify resear ch nee ds related to RF biological ef fects.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 192 What levels of RF energy are considered safe? V ar ious organizations and countries have developed standards f or exposure to radiofr equency energy . These standards recommend saf e levels of e xposure f or both the gener a l public and f or workers. In the United States, the FCC has used safety guidelines f or RF environmental exposure since 1985. The FCC guidelines f o r hu man ex posure to RF electromagnetic fields are derived from the recommendations of tw o e xper t organizations, the National Council on Radiation Protection and Me asurements (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electr onics Engineer s (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations w e re dev e loped by scie ntific and engineer ing e xper ts dra wn from industr y , go vernment, and academia after e xtensive reviews of the scientific liter ature related to th e biological ef fe cts of RF energ y . Many countries in Europe and elsewher e use e xposure guidelines developed by the International Commission on Non-Io nizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The ICNIRP safety limits are g enerally si milar to those of the NCRP and IEEE, with a f ew exceptions. F or example, IC NIRP recommends diff erent e x posure levels in the lower and upper frequency rang es and for localized ex posure from certain products such as hand-held wi reless telephones. Currently , the W orld Health Organization is wor king to provide a frame work f or inter national harmonizatio n of RF safe ty standards. The NCRP , IEEE, and ICNIRP all hav e identified a whole-body Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) value of 4 watts per kilogr am (4 W/kg) as a threshold level of e xposure at which harmful bi ological effects may occur . Exposure guidelines in ter ms of field strength, pow er density and localized SAR were then derived from this threshold value. In a ddition, the NCRP , IEEE, and ICNIRP guidelines var y depending on the freque ncy of the RF exposure. This is due to the finding that whole-body human abso rption of RF energy varies with the frequency of the RF signal. The most re strictive limits on whole-body e xposure are in the frequency rang e of 30-300 M Hz where the human body absorbs R F energy most ef ficiently . For products that onl y ex pose part of t he bod y , such as wireless phones, e xposure limits in terms of SAR only are specif ied. The e x posure limits used by the FCC ar e expressed in terms of SAR, electr ic and magnetic field strength, and po wer density f or transmitters operating at frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz. The specific values can be f ound in two FCC bulletins, OET Bulletins 56 and 65: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/ bulletins/#56 ; http://www .fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#65 . Why has the FCC adopted guidelines for RF exposure? The FCC authorizes and licenses produc ts, transmitters , and facilities that g enerate RF an d microwa ve radiation. It has jur isdiction ov er all transmitting ser vices in the U.S. e xcept those sp ecifically oper ated by the Federal Government. While the FCC does not hav e the expertise to determine radiation e xpo sure guidelines on its own, it do es have the e xpertise and author ity to recognize and adopt technicall y sound standards promulga ted by other expert agencies and organizations, and has done so. (Our joint efforts with the FD A in developing this website is illustr ative of the kind of inter-a gency efforts and consultation we engage in r egarding this health and safety issue.)
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 193 Under the National Environme ntal P o licy Act of 1969 (NEP A), the FCC has certain responsibilities to co nsider whet her its actions will significantly affect the quality of the human environment. The ref ore, FCC appro val and licensing of transmitters and facilities must be evaluated for sign if icant impact on the environment. Human e xposure to RF radiation emitted by FCC-regulated transmitters is one of several f actor s that must be considered in suc h environmental evaluations. In 1996 , the FCC revised its guidel ines for RF e xpo sure as a result of a multi-year proceeding an d as required by the T elecommunications Act of 1996. Radio and television broadcast stations, satellite-earth stations, experimental radio stations and certain wireless communication f acilities are required to undergo routine evaluatio n for RF compliance when the y sub mit an application to the FCC f or co nstruction or modification of a transmitting facility or rene wal of a license. F ailure to comply with the FCC's RF e xpos ure guidelines could lead to the preparation of a formal Environmental Assessment, possible Environmental Impact Statemen t and eventual rejection of an application. T e c hnical gu idelines fo r evaluating compliance with the FCC RF safety r equirements can be foun d in the FCC's OET Bulletin 65. http://www .f cc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#65 . Low-powe red, intermittent, or inaccessibl e RF transmitters and facilities are normally e x cluded from the r equirement f or routine evaluation f or RF e xpo sure. These e xclusions are based on standard calculations and measurement data indicating that a transmitting station or equipment operating under the conditions prescribed is unli kel y t o cause e xposures in excess of the guidelines under nor mal conditions of use. Such e xclusions are not exc l usions from compliance, but, rather , e xclusions from routine evaluation. The FCC's policies on RF e xposure and categori cal exc lusio n can be f ound in Section 1.1307(b) of the FCC's Rules and Regulations [(47 CFR 1.1307(b)]. How can I obtain the Specific Absorp tion Rate (SAR) value for my wireless phone? The FCC requir es that wireless phones so ld in the United States demonstrate compliance with human e xposure limi ts adopted by the FCC in 1996. The relative amount of RF energy absorbed b y a wireless telephone-user is giv en by the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), as e x plained above. The FCC r equires wireless phones to comply w ith a safe ty limit of 1.6 w atts per kilogram (1.6 W/ kg) in terms of SAR. Inf or mation on SAR for a specif ic ph one model can be obtained for man y recentl y manufactured phones using the FCC identification (ID) nu mber f or that model. The FCC ID number is usually printed somewher e on the case of the phone. Sometimes it may be necessar y to remove the batter y pack to find the number . Once you have the ID number , go to the f o llowing W eb address: www .fcc.gov/oet/fccid . On this pa ge, y ou will s ee instructio ns for entering the FCC ID numbe r . T ype the FCC ID number e xact ly as r eque sted (t he Grantee Code is the fir st three char acter s, the Eq uipment Product Code is the rest of the FCC ID numb er).

Phones and other products author ized since June 2, 2000, should ha ve the maximum SAR levels noted direct ly on the “Gr ant of Equipment A uthor ization. ” For phones and products author ized betw een a bout mid-1998 and J u ne 2000, detailed inf ormation on SAR levels is ty pically f ound in the e xhibits associated with the g rant. O nce a gr ant is accessed, the e xhibits can be vie wed by c licking on “Vi ew Exhibit. ” Grants authorized prior to 1998 are not part of the ele ctronic database but, ra ther , have been docum e nted in the f or m of paper re cords. The FCC databas e does not list phon es by model num ber . Howev er , consumers may f ind SAR information from other sources as well. Some wireless phone manuf acturers make SAR info rmation availab le on t heir own W eb si tes. In additi on, some non -go vernment W eb sites pr ovide SARs f or specific mod els of wireless phones. Ho wever , the FCC ha s not r eviewed thes e sites and mak es no guar antees of their accuracy . Finally , phones certified by the Cellular T elecommunica tions and Inter net Associat ion (CTIA) are required to provide SAR infor mation to con sumers in the instructional materials that come with the phones. Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from exposure to RF emissions? Since there are no known ri sks from ex posure to RF emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to believ e th at hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands- free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenien c e and comfort. These systems reduce the absorptio n of RF en ergy in the head because the phone, which is the sour ce of the RF emission s, will not be placed a gainst the head. On the other hand, if the phone is moun ted a gainst the waist or other part of the body during use, then that par t of the body will absorb more RF energy . W ireless phones marketed in the U .S. are requir ed to meet safety r e quirements regar dless o f whether they are used a gainst the head or against the body . Either configuration should result in co mpliance with the saf ety limit. Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the head from RF radiation work? Since there are no known ri sks from ex posure to RF emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to believ e th at accessor ies that claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce risks. So me products that claim to shield the user from RF absorption use special ph one cases, while other s inv olve nothing more than a metallic accessor y attached to the phone. Studies hav e shown that these products ge nerally do not w ork as adv er tised. Unlike “hand-f ree” kits, these so-called “shields” ma y interfere wi th prop er oper ation of the ph one. The phone may be f orced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an increa s e in RF absorption. In Februar y 2002, the Federal tr ade Commission (FTC) charg ed two companies that sold devi ces that claimed to protect wir e less phone user s from radiation with making f alse and unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC, these defendants la ck ed a reasonable basis to substantiate their claim.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 195 What are wireless tele phone base stations? Fixed antenn as us ed f or wireless telecommun ications are r eferred to as cellular base stations, cell stations, PCS (“P er son al Communications Ser vice”) stations or telephone transmission tow er s. These base stations consist of antennas and electronic equi pment. Because the ante nnas need to be high in the air , the y are often located on towers, poles, water tanks, or rooftops. T ypical heights for freestanding base statio n towers are 50-200 f eet. Some base stations us e antennas tha t look like poles, 10 to 15 feet in length, tha t are ref er red to as “omni -directional” ante nnas. These types of an tennas are usually fo und in rural areas. In urban and suburb an areas, wir eless providers now mo re commonl y use panel or sector antennas f or their ba se station s. These a ntennas consist o f rect angular panels , about 1 by 4 f eet in dimension. The antennas a re usually arrang ed in three groups of th ree antenna s each. One antenna in each gr oup is used to tr ansmit signals to wireless phones, an d the other tw o antennas in each g roup are used to receiv e signals from wireless phones. At any base station site, the amount of RF energy produced depends on the number of radio c h annels (transmitters) per antenna and the power of eac h transmitter . T ypically , 21 channels per antenna sector ar e available. F or a typical cell site using sector antennas, each of the three transmitting antennas could be connected to up to 21 transmitters f or a total of 63 transmitters. However , it is unlikely that all of the tr ansmitter s wo uld be transmitting at the same time. When omni-directional antennas are used, a cellul ar ba se station could theoretically use up to 96 tr ansmitters, but this would be ver y unusual, and, once again, it is unlikely that all transmitters would be in operation simultaneously . Base stations used for PCS communications g enerally require f ewer transmitters than those used for cellular r adio transmissions, since PCS carr ier s usually have a higher dens ity of base station antenna sites. Are wireless telephone base stations safe? The electroma gnetic RF s ign als transmitted from base station antennas stations trav el toward the horizon in relatively nar row paths. For e x ample, the radiation pattern for an antenna array moun t ed on a tower can be likened to a thin pancake centered around the anten na system. The individual pattern fo r a single array of sector antennas is we dg e- shaped, like a piece of pie. As with all f or ms of electromagnetic energy , the power decreases r apidly as one mov es a wa y from the antenna. Theref ore, RF e xposure on the ground is muc h less than e xposure ver y close to the antenn a and in the path of the transmitted radio signal. In fact, g round-level e xposure from such antennas is typically thousands of times less than the exposur e levels recommended as safe by e xper t organizations. So ex posure to ne arby residents would be w ell within safety margins. Cellular an d PCS base stations in the United States are requir ed to comply with limits for e x posure recommended by e xpert o rganizations and endor sed by go vernment agencies responsib l e for health and saf ety . Measurements made near cellul ar and PCS base statio n antennas mounted on tow er s have confirmed that ground-lev el exposures are typi call y t housands of times less than the e xpo sure limits adopted by the FCC. In fa ct, in order to be e xposed to levels at or near the FCC limits for cellular or PCS frequenc ies an individual would
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 196 essentially hav e t o remain in the main tr an smitted radio signal (at the height of the antenna) and within a few f eet from the antenna. This is, o f cours e, ver y unlikely to occur . When cellular and PCS antennas are mounte d on rooftops, RF levels on that roof or on others ne ar by would probably be greater t h an those typically encountered on the gr ound. How ever , exposur e leve ls appr oaching or e xceeding saf ety guidelines should be encoun tered only v er y close to or directly i n front of the antennas. In additio n , f or sector-type an tennas, typicall y used f or such rooftop base stations, RF levels to the sid e and in back of these ant ennas are i nsignificant. General guideli n es on antenna in stallati ons and circumstances that might give rise to a concern a bout an f a cility's conf or mance with FCC reg u lations can be f ound in A Loca l Gov er nment Official's Guide to T ransmitti ng Antenna RF Emission Saf ety: Rules, Procedur es, and Practical Guidance. This Guide can be accessed at: http://www .fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety . Who regulates exposure to radiation from microwave ovens, television sets and computer monitors? The Food and Drug Administration is responsib l e f o r protecting the public from harmful radiation emissions from these consumer products. Does the FCC routinely mo nitor radio frequency radi ation from antenna s? The FCC does not hav e the resources or the personnel to routinely monitor the emissions for all the thousands of tr ansmitter s that are subject to FCC jurisdiction. H ow e ver , the FCC does have measurement instrumentation f or evaluating RF levels in ar eas that may be accessible to the public or to w orkers. If there is evidence f or potential non-co mpliance with FCC exposure guidelin es f or a FCC-regulated f acility , staf f from the FCC's Of fice of Engineering and T echnology or the FCC Enfor c ement Bu reau can conduct and investigation, and, if appropriate, perform actual me asurements. Circumstances that could give rise to a concern about an facility 's conf or mance with FCC regulations can be f ound in A Local Government Of ficial 's Guide to T ransmitting Antenna RF Emission Safety: Rules, Procedur es, and Pr actical Guidance. This Guide can be accessed at: http://www .fcc.gov/oet/r fsafety . Potential e x posure prob lems should be brought to the FCC's attention by contacting the FCC RF Safety Prog ram at: 202-418-2464 or b y email: rfsafety@fcc.gov . Does the FCC maintain a database that includes informa tion on the location and technical parameters of all the transmitting towers it regulates? Each of the FCC Bureaus maintains its o w n licensing database system for the ser vice(s) it regulates (e.g ., television, cellular ser v ice, satellite earth stations.) The FCC issues two types of licenses: site specific and market based. In the case of site specific licensed f aciliti es, technical oper ating information is collected from the licensee as par t of the licensing process. How ever , in the case of market based licensin g (e.g., PCS, cellu lar), the l icensee is granted the authority to operate a radio communicatio ns system in a g eographic area using as many facilities as are required, a nd the licensee is not required to pr ovide the FCC with specific location and operating par ameter s of these facilities.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 197 Inf o rmation on site specific licensed fa cilities can be f ound the “General Menu Reports” (GenMen) at http://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/genmen/index.hts . The various FCC Bureaus also publish on at least a weekly basis, bulk e xtracts of their licensing databases. Each licensing database has its own unique file structure. These extr acts consist of multip le, very large f iles. The FCC's Office of Engineering and T echnology (OET) maintains an inde x to these databases at http://www .f cc.gov/oet/info/database/fadb.html . Entr y points into the various databases include frequency , state/coun ty , latitude/longitude, call-sign and licensee name. F or further information on the Commission's e x isting databases, you c an contact Donald Campbell at dcampbel@fcc.gov or 202-418-2405. Can local and state governmental bodies esta blish limits for RF exposure? Although some local and state governments have enacted rules and regulations about human e x posure to RF energy in the past, the T ele communications Act of 1996 requires the Federal Government to control human exposure to RF emissions. In particular , Section 70 4 of the Act states that, “No State or l ocal go vernment or instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construct ion, and modification of per son al wireless ser vice facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of ra dio frequency emissions to the e xtent that such facilities compl y with the Commission's regulations concer ning such emissions. ” Fur ther inf or mation on federal authority and FCC policy is available in a fact sheet from the FCC's W ire less T elecommunications Bur eau at www .fcc.go v/wtb . Do wireless phones pose a health hazard? The available scientific evidence does not show that any health prob lems are associated with using wireless phone s. There is no proof , howev e r , that wireless phones are absolutely saf e . Wireless phones emit low l evels of radiofr e quency energy (RF) in the microw ave rang e while being used. The y also emit ver y low levels of RF when in th e stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heat ing tissue), e xposure to low lev el RF that does not produce heating ef fects ca uses no known adverse health ef fects. Man y studies of low lev el RF exposur e s hav e not found an y biolog ical effects. Some studies have sugg ested that some biological ef f ects may occur , but such findings hav e not been confir med by addi tional researc h. In some cases, other researc her s have had difficulty in repr oducing those studies, or in determining the reasons f or inconsistent results. What is FDA's role concerning t he safety of wireless phones? Under the la w , FDA does not review the saf ety of radiation-emitting consumer products such as wire less phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs o r medical devices. How ever , the a g en cy has authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit radiofrequency energ y (RF) at a level that is hazardous to the user . In such a case, FD A could require the manuf acturers of wireless phones to notify users of the he alth hazard and to r epair , replace or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer e xists.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 198 Although the existing scientific data do not justify FD A regulator y actions, FD A has urg e d the wireless phone industr y to take a number of steps, including th e fo llowing: 䡲 Support needed research into possib le biological effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless phones; 䡲 Design wireless phones i n a wa y that minimizes any RF e xposure to the user that is not necessar y f or device function; and 䡲 Cooperate in providing users of wire less phones with the best possib l e inf ormation on possible ef f e cts of wireless phone u se on human health FD A belongs to an interagency w orking g r oup of the f ederal agencies that have responsibility f or dif ferent aspects of RF saf ety to ensure coordinated efforts at the fe deral lev el. The following ag en cies belong to this worki n g group: 䡲 National Institute for Occupa tional Safety and Health 䡲 Environmental Protection Agency 䡲 Feder al Communications Co mmission 䡲 Occupational Saf e ty an d Health Administration 䡲 National T elecommunications and Information Administration The National Institutes of Health par ticipates in some interagency w orking group activities, as w ell. FD A shares r egulator y responsibilitie s for wir eless phones with t he Fe deral Communicati ons Commission (FCC). All pho n es that are so ld in the United States must compl y with FCC safety guidelin es that limit RF e xposure. FCC r elies on FD A and other health agencie s f or safety questions about wireless phones. FCC also regulates the base stations th at the wireless phone network s rely upon. While these base stati ons operate at higher po wer than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF e xpo sures that people g et from these base stations are typi cally thousands of times low er than those the y can g e t from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not th e pr imar y subject of th e safety questions discussed in this document. What kinds of phones are t he subject of th is update? The ter m “wireless phone” ref ers here to hand-held wireless phones with built- in antennas, o ften called “c ell, ” “mob ile, ” or “PCS” phon es. These types of wireless phones can e xpose the user to measurab le radiofrequen cy energy (RF) because of the shor t distance between th e phone and the user's head. These RF e xpo sures are limited by F ederal Communications Commission safety guidelines that were dev eloped with the advice of FD A and other federal health and saf e ty agencies. When the phone is located at g reater distances from the user , the exposur e to RF is drasticall y low er because a per son's RF e xp osure decreases rapidl y wit h increasing distance from the sour ce. The so- called “cordless phones, ” which ha v e a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at f ar lower pow er levels, and thus produce RF e xpo sures well within th e FCC's compliance limits.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 199 What are the resu lts of the research done already? The researc h done thus far has produce d conf licting results, and many studies have suffer ed from f laws in their r esearc h methods. Animal experiments inv estigating the effects of radiofrequen cy en erg y (RF) e xposures char acteristic of wireless phones ha ve yielded conf li cting results that often cannot be repeated in other laborator ies. A few animal studies, howev e r , have suggested that low levels of RF c ould accelerate the development of cancer in laborator y animals. How ever , many of the studies that showed incr eased tumor development used animals that had been geneticall y eng ineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be pre-disposed to dev elo p cancer in the absence of RF exposur e . Other studies e xposed the animals to RF f or up to 22 hours per day . These conditions are not similar to the conditions under which people use wir eless phones, so we don't know with certainty what the results of such studies mean f or human health. Three large epidemiology stu dies have been published since De cember 2000. Between them, the studies inv estigated any possible association between the use of wireless phones and primar y br ain cancer , glioma, meningioma, o r acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or salivar y gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies demonstrat ed the e xistence of any ha r mful health effects from wireless phone RF e xposu res. Howev er , none of the studies can ans wer questions about long-ter m e x posures, since the averag e per iod of phone use in these studies was around three years. What research is needed to dec ide whether RF exposure from wireless phones poses a health risk? A combination of laborator y s tudies an d epidemiological studies of people actually using wir e less phones would pro vid e some of the data that are needed. Lifetime anima l e xposure studies could be completed in a fe w years. H ow ever , very large numbers of animals would be ne eded to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if one e xists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable to human po pula tions, but 10 or more years' follo w- up may be needed to pro vide answers about some health ef fects, suc h as cancer . This is b ecause the inter val be tween the time of e xposure to a cancer- causing agent and the time tum or s deve lop - if the y do - may be man y , many years. The interpretation of epidemi o logica l studies is hampered by dif ficulties in measuring actual RF e x posure duri ng day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many f acto rs af fect this measur ement, su ch as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used. What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless phone RF? FD A is wo rking with the U .S. National T oxicology Prog ram and wi th gr oups of investigator s aroun d the world to ensure that hig h prio rit y animal studi es are conducted to address im portant questions about the ef fects o f exposu re to radiofr equency energ y (RF). FD A has been a leading par ticipant in the W orld Health Organization International Electromagnetic F ields (EMF ) Project since its inception in 1996.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 200 An inf luential result of this wor k ha s been the dev elopment of a detailed agenda of resea rch needs that has driven the establishment of new resear ch progr ams around the world. The Project has also helped d evelop a series of public inf or mation documents on EMF issues. FD A and the Cellular T elecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a f or mal Cooperative Researc h and Development Ag reement (CRAD A) to do researc h on wireless phone safety . FD A provides the scientific ov er sight, obtaining input from e xper ts in go v er nment, industr y , and academic organizations. CTIA-funded researc h is conducted through contr acts to independent investigators. The initial rese ar ch will include both laborator y studies and studies of wireless phone user s. The CRAD A will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs in the conte xt of the latest researc h developments around the world. 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 v er y small. But if you are concerned about avoiding even potential r isks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize y o ur e xposure to radiofr equency energy (RF). Since time is a ke y factor in how much e xposure a person receiv es , reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF e xposure. 䡲 If y ou must conduct e xtended conversations by wireless phone ev er y day , you could place more distance between y our body and the source of the RF , since the e xposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For e xample, you could use a headset and car r y the wi reless phone awa y from your body or us e a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data do not demon strate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF e x posure from these products, you can use measures like those described a bov e to reduce your RF e xposure from wire less phon e use. What about children using wireless phones? The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including c hildren and teenagers. If you w ant to take steps to lower e xposure to radiofrequency energy (RF), th e measures d escribed a bove w ould apply to childr en and teenagers using wireless ph o nes. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and increasing th e distance bet ween the user and the RF sour ce will reduce RF e xposure. Some g roups sponsor ed by other nationa l g ov ernments hav e advised that c hildren be discourag ed from using wireless phones at all. F or example, the g overnment in the United Kingd om distr ibuted leaf lets con taining such a recommendati on in December 2000. The y noted that no ev idence e xists that usi ng a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recomme n dation to limit wireless phone use by c hildren w as strictl y preca utionary; it was not based on scientif ic evidence that any health hazard exists.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 201 What about wireless phone inte rference with medical equipment? Radiofrequency energy (RF) from wire less phones can interact with some electronic devices. For this r easo n, FD A helped dev elop a de tailed test method to measure electromagnetic interf er ence (E MI) of implanted cardiac pacemaker s and defibrillator s from wi reless telephones. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association fo r the Advancement of Medical instrumentation (AAMI). The fina l draft, a joint effort by FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other groups, w as compl eted in late 2000. This standard will allow manuf acturers to ensure that cardiac pacemaker s and defibrillator s are saf e from wireless phone EMI. FD A has tested hear ing aids for interf er ence from handheld wireless phones and helped develop a voluntar y stand ard sponsor ed by the Institute o f Electrical and Electronic Engineer s (IEEE) . This standard specifies test methods and perf ormance requirements f or hear in g aids and wireless phones so that that no interf erence occur s when a pe rson uses a “compatible” phone and a “compatible” hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approv ed b y the IEEE in 2000. FD A continues to monitor the us e of wireless phones f or possible interactions with other medical de vice s. Should har mful interf erence be f ound to o ccur , FD A will conduct testin g to as sess the inter ference and wor k to resolve the pr oblem. Which other federal agencies have re sponsibilities related to potentia l RF health effects? Certain ag encies in the F ederal Go vernment hav e been invo lve d in moni toring, researc hing or regulating issues relate d to human e xposure to RF radiation. These agencies include the F ood and Dr ug Administration (FD A), the Environmental Protection Agency (EP A), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the National In stitute for Occupational Saf ety and Health (NIOSH), the Natio nal T e lecommunications and Inf or mation Administration (NTIA) and the Department of Defe nse (DOD). By authority of the Radiation Control for Health and Saf ety Act of 1968, the Center f or Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the FD A develops perf or mance standards for the emission of r adiation from electronic products including X-r ay equipment, other medica l devices, television sets, microwav e ov ens, laser products and sunlamps. The CDRH es tablished a pr oduct perf or mance standard for micro wave ov ens in 1971 limiting the amount of RF leaka g e from ov ens. However , the CDRH has not adopted perf ormance standards f or other RF-emitting products. Th e FD A is, howev er , the lead f ederal health agen cy in monitoring the late st researc h developments and advising other ag encies with respec t to the saf ety of RF-emitting products used by the public, suc h as cellular and PCS pho nes. The FD A's microw ave ov en standard is a n emission sta ndard (as opposed to an e xposure standar d) that allows specific levels of microwav e l eakage (measured at five centimeter s from the ov en surface). The standar d al so re quires ov ens to have two i ndependent interlock s ystems that prev ent the oven from g enerating microw aves the moment that the latc h is released or the door of the ov en is
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 202 opened. The FD A has stated that o vens that meet its standar ds and are used accordin g to the manuf acturer's re commendations are safe f or consumer and industrial use. More inf or mation is ava i lable from: www .fda.gov/cdrh . The EP A has, in the past, considered deve loping fe deral guidelines f or public e xpo sure to RF radiation. How e ver , EP A activities related to RF saf ety and health are presentl y limited to adviso r y functions. For e xample, the EP A now chairs an Inter-agency Radiofrequen cy W orking Group, whic h coordinates RF health-related activities among the vari ous fe deral ag encies with health or regulator y responsibilities in this area. OSHA is responsible for pr o tecting wor k er s from e xposure to hazardous chemical and ph ysical agents. In 1971, OSHA issued a protection guide for e xpo sure of w o rkers to RF radiation [29 CFR 1910.97]. Howev er , this guide was later ruled to be only advisor y and not mandator y . Moreover , it was based on an earlier RF e xpo sure standard th at has now been revised. At the pr esent time, OSHA uses the IEEE and/or FCC exposure guidelines f o r enf orcement purposes under OSHA's “gener al duty clause” (f or more information see: http://www .osha-slc.gov/SL TC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html . NIOSH is par t of the U.S. Departme nt of H ealth and Human Ser vices. It conducts researc h and investigations in to issues related to occupational e xpo sure to ch emical and ph ysical a g ents. NIOSH has, in the past, undertaken to develop RF e x posure guidelines for workers, but final gu idelines were never adopted by the agency . NIOSH conducts safety-related RF studies throug h its Physical Ag ents Ef fects Br anch in Cincinnati, Ohio. The NTIA is an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce and is responsib le f or authorizing Federal Government us e of the RF elec trom agnetic spectr um. Like the FCC, the NTIA also has NEP A responsibilities and has considered adopting guidelines f or evaluating RF e xposure from U.S. Gov er nment transmitters such as r adar and militar y faci lities. The Department of Defense (DOD) has conducted r esearc h on the biological effects of RF energy for a number of years. This research is now conducted primar ily at the U .S. Air Force Researc h Laborator y located at Brooks Air Force Base, T exas. The DOD W eb site f o r RF biological ef fe cts inf or mation is listed with other sites in conjunction with a question on other sources of inf ormation, below . Who funds and carries out research on the biologi cal effects of RF energy? Researc h into possible biological ef fects of RF energy is car r ied out in laboratories in the United States and around the world. In the U.S., most researc h has been funded by the Depar t ment of Defense, due to the e xtensive militar y use of RF equipment such as radar and high-pow ered radio transmitters. In addition, some federa l agencies r esponsible f or health and safety , such as the Environmen tal Protection Agency (EP A) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FD A), have spon sored and conducted r esearc h in this area. At the presen t time, most of the non-militar y research on biological effects of RF energ y in the U.S. is being funded by industr y organizations. More researc h is being car r ied out ov erseas, par ticularly in Eur ope.
Section 4A: Safety Guid elines 203 In 1996, the W orld Health Organizatio n (WHO) esta blished the International EMF Project to review the scien tific lite rature and w ork towards r esolution of health concerns over the use of RF te c hnology . WHO maintains a W eb site that provides e xtensive inf ormation on this project and about RF biological ef fects and researc h ( www .who.ch/peh-emf ). FD A, EP A and ot her US g overnment a g enci es responsible f or public health and safety ha ve work ed together and in connection with WHO to monitor developments and identify resear ch nee ds related to RF biological ef fects. How does FCC Audit Cell Phone RF? After FCC gr ants permission for a particular cellular telephone to be marketed, FCC will occasionall y co nduct “post-grant” testing to determine whether production versions of the phone are being produced to conf orm with FCC regulator y requirements. The manufactur e r of a cell phone that does not meet FCC's regulator y requirements ma y be requ ired to remo ve the cell phone from use and to refund the purcha s e price or provide a replacement phone, and may be subject to civil or cr imin al penalties. In addition, if the cell phone presents a risk of injur y to the user , FDA ma y also take regulator y action. The most important post-grant test, from a consumer's perspective, is testing of the RF emissions of the phone. FCC measures th e Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of the phone, following a v er y r igorous testing protocol. As is true for n e arly an y scientific measurement, there is a possi bility that the test measurement may be less than or greater than the actual RF emitted by the phone. This differ ence between the RF test measur ement and ac tual RF emission is because test measurements are limited by instrumen t accuracy , because test measurement and actual use environments ar e dif ferent, and other variable factors. This inherent variability is known as “m easur ement uncertainty . ” When FCC conducts post-grant testing of a cell phone, FCC takes into account any measurement uncertainty to when deter mining whether regulator y action is appropriate. This approach ensur e s that when FCC takes regulator y action, it will hav e a sound, defensib le s cientific basis. FD A scientific staf f reviewed the meth odology used by FCC to measur e cell phone RF , and agreed it is an acceptable appr oach, given our current understanding of the r isks presented by cellular phone RF emissions. RF emissions from cellula r phones have not been shown to presen t a r isk of injur y to the user when the measure d SAR is le ss than the safety limits set by FCC (an SAR of 1.6 w/kg). Even in a ca se wher e the maximum measurement uncertainty per mitted by current me asurement standards was added to the maximum permissible SAR, the resulting SAR value would be w ell below any level known to produce an acut e ef f ect . Consequently , FCC's approach with measurement uncertainty will not result in consumers being e xposed to any known risk from the RF emi tted by cellular telephones. FD A will continue to monitor studies an d literature reports concerning acute effects of cell phone RF , and concer ning chr onic effects of long-term exposur e to cellular tele phone RF (that is, the risks from using a cell phone for ma ny years). If new inf or mation leads FD A to believe that a chang e to FCC's measurement policy ma y be appropr iat e, FDA will contact FCC and both agencies will w ork together to de velop a mutuall y -acceptable approach.
