Abstract
This paper deals with the controversy and disagreement surrounding the issue of harm from radiofrequency (RF) and microwaves. The radiation standards adopted by different countries are quite divergent with the least strict standard for microwave exposure differing from the most strict by a factor of 100. Among the most powerful sources of RF and microwave radiation are radar systems used for tracking and guidance purposes, as well as transmiters used in satellite communication systems. RF and microwaves are nonionizing because the energy of each photon is relatively low. Biological systems exposed to RF and microwaves acquire induced electric and magnetic fields which can be focused by a combination of high refractive index within an animal and convex body contours. The effects on animals and humans are summarized. (KRM)
