What are the FCC's guidelines for radiation exposure?
The FCC has set limits for specific absorption rate (SAR), which measures the rate at which the body absorbs radiation from electronic devices. SAR values are designed to prevent harmful thermal effects on tissues. The FCC's current limit for public exposure from cell phones is 1.6 watts per kilogram, averaged over one gram of tissue. These standards are based on research and recommendations from several health organizations, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
