13
(W/kg) averagedover 10 grams of tissue for the body or head (4.0 W/kg averaged
over 10 grams of tissue for theextremities - hands, wrists, ankles and feet). The
standard incorporates a substantial margin ofsafety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations inmeasurements.
Federal Communications Commission Notice (United States): Before a wireless
