Human Ixposure To Radio Frequency Fields Guidelines For Cellular PCS Sites centimeter This limit is many times greater than RF levels typically PCS cell site towers or in the vicinity of other lower powered cell site transmitters found near the base of cellular or Calculations corresponding to a worst casesituation all transmitters operating simultaneously and continuously at the maximum licensed power show that in order to be exposed to RF levels near the FCC s guidelines an individual would essentially have to remain in the main transmitting beam and within a few feet ofthe antenna for several minutes or longer Thus the possibility that a member of the general public could be exposed to RF levels in excess of the FCC guidelines is extremely remote When cellular and PCS antennas are mounted on rooftops RF emissions could exceed higher than desirable guideline levels on the rooftop itself even though rooftop antennas usually operate at lower power levels than free standing power antennas Such levels might become an issue for maintenance or other personnel working on the rooftop Exposures exceeding the guidelines levels however are only likely to be encountered very close to and directly in front of the antennas In such cases precautions such as time limits can avoid exposure in excess of the guidelines Individuals living or working within the building are not at risk For More Information For more information on this issue visit the FCC s RF Safety Web site atwww fcc gov oetlrfsafety Far further information about any other telecommunications relatedissues visit the FCC s Consumer Governmental Affairs Bureau Web site atwww fcc gov cgb or contact the FCC s Consumer Center by e mailingfccinfoC gov calling1888 CALL FCC1888 225 5322 voice or1888 TELL FCC 1888 835 5322 TTY faxing1866 418 0232 or writing to Federal Communications Commission Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau Consumer Information and Complaints Division 445 12 St SW Washington DG 20554 Pabe 2 of2 For this orany other consumerpublication in an accessible format electronic ASCII text Braille largeprint or audio please write or call us at the address orphone number below orsend anemailto FCC504afcc 4ov To receive information on this and otherFCC consumertopics through the Commission selectronic subscriber service click on 17ttp www fccpov cgb contarts This documentis for consumer education purposes only and is not intended to affect any proceeding orcases involving thissubject matterorrelated issues 19 08 07 FederalCommunications Commission Consumer Governmental Affairs Bureau 445 12th StSW Washington DC 20554 1888 CALL FCC1886 225 5322 TTY1888 TELL FCCfi888 835 5322 Fax1666 418 0232 lastreviewed updated on11 09 07 FCC Home Search RSS dates EFilin Initiatives Consumers Find People Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street SW Washington DC 20554 More FCC Contact Information Phone1888 CALL FCC1888 225 5322 TTY1888 TELL FCC1888 835 5322 Fax1866 418 0232 Email fccinfoanfcc gov Privacy Policy Website Policies Notices Required BrowserPlug ins Freedom of Information Act http www fcc gov cab constunerfacts rfexposure html 12 08 2010
