For Your Safety
The FCC also regulates the base stations that the tablet
networks rely upon. While these base stations operate
at higher power than do the tablets themselves, the RF
exposures that people get from these base stations are
typically thousands of times lower than those they can
get from tablets. Base stations are thus not the subject
of the safety questions discussed in this document.
3. What kinds of devices are the subject of this
update?
The term "wireless device" refers here to handheld
wireless devices with built-in antennas, often called
"cell", "mobile", or "PCS" devices. These types of wireless
devices can expose the user to measurable Radio
Frequency (RF) energy because of the short distance
between the device and the user's head.
These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines
that were developed with the advice of the FDA and
28
other federal health and safety agencies. When the
device is located at greater distances from the user, the
exposure to RF is drastically lower because a person's
RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing distance
from the source.
4. What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting
results, and many studies have suffered from flaws
in their research methods. Animal experiments
investigating the effects of Radio Frequency (RF) energy
exposures characteristic of wireless devices have yielded
conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in
other laboratories. A few animal studies, however, have
suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the
development of cancer in laboratory animals. However,
many of the studies that showed increased tumor
development used animals that had been genetically
