But, did we know that Cell phones emit electromagnetic radiation. X-rays is another example of electromagnetic radiation.
Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through material. This ionizing radiation produces charged particles in matter. Ionizing radiation is produced by unstable atoms and have excess of energy.
World Health Organization (WHO) has classified radiation coming from mobiles as carcinogenic. Additional research is being done into the long term usage of this instrument to gather information regarding the above statement.
Every phone has to pass a Federal Communication Commission (F.C.C) certification. A cell phone's maximax SAR level must be less than 1.6W/kg (watts per kilogram). In Europe, the level is 2 W/kg, while Canada allows a maximum of 1.6 W/kg.
The SAR level listed in the charts represents the HIGHEST SAR level with the phone next to the ear. SAR level varies between different transmission bands and different testing bodies can obtain different results. It is also possible for results to vary between different editions of the same cell phone.
The table below includes lists of cellphones by brand name.
