SPRINT_TX115C041021_A 2004.10.25 8:59 PM Page 155 How is radiofrequency radiation measured? RF waves and RF fields have both electrical and magnetic components. It is often convenient to express the strength of the RF field in terms of each component. For example, the unit "volts per meter" (V/m) is used to measure the electric field strength, and the unit "amperes per meter" (A/m) is used to express the magnetic field strength.

SPRINT_TX115C041021_A 2004.10.25 8:59 PM Page 156 What levels of RF energy are considered safe? Various organizations and countries have developed standards for exposure to radiofrequency energy. These standards recommend safe levels of exposure for both the general public and for workers. In the United States, the FCC has used safety guidelines for RF environmental exposure since 1985.

SPRINT_TX115C041021_A 2004.10.25 8:59 PM Page 163 What kinds of phones are the subject of this update? The term "wireless phone" refers here to hand-held wireless phones with builtin antennas, often called "cell," "mobile," or "PCS" phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable radiofrequency energy (RF) because of the short distance between the phone and the user's head.

The interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.

The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and teenagers.
