If you've ever wandered through a town you might have noticed tiny cell towers for 5G on the poles of street lights. They look like little boxes however they're actually sending wireless signals from cellular providers to your phone.
The smaller ones are being replaced by the larger built cell towers. While they're less noticeable, they still can create problems for those who live nearby.
A FCC's Radiation Exposure Thresholds
The FCC's Radiation Exposure Thresholds determine the safe limit at which a person can be exposed to electromagnetic radiation from wireless devices. The limits of exposure are based upon scientific research which prove that electromagnetic energy could be harmful to human health.
The absorption rate specific (SAR) is an indication of the radiofrequency energy taken up by tissues. It is typically 1.6 milliwatts per kilogram spread over a kilogram of tissue.
But, since 5g operates at higher frequencies and has the potential to cause greater energy intensity on the skin and other exposed body parts. This could lead to various potential harms, including exacerbated appearance of skin disorders like dermatitis, skin cancer and cataracts.
Because of the potentially negative effects of 5G radiation, PSU has chosen to create a general limits on power density, which is 4mW/cm2 measured on 1cm2, but not to exceed 30 minutes, for all 5G services running at 3000 GHz. This limit for localization is in line with the maximum spatial-average SAR of 1.6 W/kg averaged over 1 g of tissue at 6 GHz.
The FCC's Maximum Exposure Thresholds
If you've ever used a cell phone, you're probably aware that a safe location from the tower is at least 400 meters away. This is because the power of transmission from a cell tower increases dramatically the further away the tower is.
While it sounds like something that's good but the truth is that people who live close to towers may actually be more susceptible to health issues. For example, a study from 2014 in India found that residents who lived within 50 meters of cell towers had much more health problems than those who lived farther far from antennas.
However, this study also showed that residents who moved to areas that were further from cell towers experienced their symptoms return to normal within a few days. Other studies have demonstrated that exposure to extreme frequencies of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (EMFs) could cause brain tumors, cancers as well as other health issues.
This is due to the fact that RF radiation, which is used in wireless communication can be absorbed by the body's outer layer, called the skin. This is important to understand because the skin acts as a barrier to protect against mechanical injury, infection from pathogenic microorganisms, as well as the entry of harmful substances. It is also the biggest organ in the human body. Proteck'd Clothing is accountable for protecting other organs.
The FCC's Minimum Exposure Thresholds
The FCC's Minimum Exposure Thresholds rely on numerous assumptions that are not supported by evidence from science. This includes the false belief that short-term exposures RF radiation is safe due to minimal penetration into the body (i.e., tissue heating).
This also overlooks the greater penetration of ELF components of modulated RF signals, as well as the effects of brief bursts of heat generated by RF waves that are pulsed. These theories are not compatible with current understanding of the biological effects of RF radiation, and thus they shouldn't be used for health protective exposure standards.
Furthermore, the ICNIRP and FCC restrict their maximum exposure limits to local peak SARs that are based on the peak spatial specific absorption rate (psSAR) which is an inadequate dosimetric tool to determine the degree of exposure to radiofrequency radiation. In particular, psSAR is inaccurate for frequencies above 6 GHz. Furthermore, psSAR has not been tested for 5g radiation exposed to other environmental agents such as sunlight. In the event of interactions, RF radiations with different environmental agents may cause synergistic or antagonistic results. This would result in the risk of having adverse health adverse effects. For example, exposure to RF radiation along with exposure to sunlight can increase the risk of skin cancer, and may also exacerbate other skin disorders, such as acne.
