Study Type		Engineering & Physics
Model		1.9 GHz (PHS) mobile phone and 2.45 GHz (WiFi) exposure to medical devices and analysis of electromagnetic interference.
Details		Medical Devices were tested using 1.9 GHz (PHS) cell phone signals operating at 80 milliwatts using the ANSI C63.18 ad hoc test protocol. No EMI was observed in medical devices exposed at this power level, although some EMI was reported at power levels of 800 milliwatts or greater. In addition, studies were performed using 802.11 LAN systems at 2450 MHz, and again the authors report negligible EMI effects on medical devices. A subsequent study characterized the electromagnetic environments (RF and ELF sources) both inside and outside standard hosptials
