40. e subject of the safety questions discussed in this document 3 What kinds of phones are the subject of this update The term wireless phone refers here to handheld wireless phones with built in antennas often called cell mobile or PCS phones These types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable Radio Frequency RF energy because of the short distance between the phone and the user s head Safety 91 These RF exposures are limited by FCC safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of the FDA and other federal health and safety agencies When the phone 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 The so called cordless phones which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house typically operate at far lower power levels and thus produce RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits 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 phones 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
