There is no scientific evidence that low-level
electromagnetic field exposure from mobile phones and other transmitting
devices causes adverse health effects, according to a report presented by a
Norwegian Expert Committee. In addition, the Committee provides advice to
authorities about risk management and regulatory practice.
The Committee has assessed the health hazards from low-level electromagnetic fields generated by radio transmitters. These electromagnetic fields are found around mobile phones, wireless phones and networks, mobile phone base stations, broadcasting transmitters and other communications equipment. The Committee has evaluated the power of the fields, whether they pose a health risk, the current regulatory practice, and whether the threshold limit values for exposure are observed.
