S a fety

The Institute of Electrical and

Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is

 

 

developing a technical standard

 

 

for measuring the Radio

 

 

Frequency (RF) energy exposure

 

 

from wireless phones and other

 

 

wireless handsets with the

 

 

participation and leadership of

 

 

FDA scientists and engineers.

 

 

The standard, “Recommended

 

 

Practice for Determining the

 

 

Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption

Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the first consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating 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.
