In both cases, the recommendations were developedby scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry,government, and academia after extensive reviews of thescientific literature related to the biological effects of RFenergy.The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobiledevices employs a unit of measurement known as theSpecific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure of therate of absorption of RF energy by the human body
