Mobile phones and other devices constantly send and receive
signals from towers, and they are constantly looking for signals. It
works similarly to the popular "Jack, where are you?" game. These
devices are smart, and it has been reported that they search for signals
900 times per minute. It's no surprise that they're called smartphones.
This is what happens when you use your cell phone
Your cell phone transmits signals in the form of radio frequency radiation (RF). This signal is picked up by the nearest tower, which sends it to a switching centre. This is then linked to another device, all in a matter of seconds.
The danger
In layman's terms, this is what happens when you answer a phone call. The signal transmission is very high immediately after answering a call, and attaching it close to your head exposes you to more radiation. According to Dr Devra Lee Davis, an American epidemiologist, the worse time to attach your phone to your head is when it rings. Making a phone call while driving is also hazardous to your health. It not only increases your chances of an accident, but it also exposes you to more radiation. As the car moved from one location to another, the cell phone continued to search for signals, and this is at a mass peak. The effects of radiation emitted by mobile phones and other wireless devices have attracted the interest of scientists all over the world. Brain tumours and cancer have been linked to cell phone radiation.
Recognized institutions and organizations such as the World Health Organization, Telstra, and Israel's Institute for Non-Ionizing Radiation have issued warnings about the dangers of cell phone radiation exposure.
It is recommended that you try to avoid these radiations as much as possible by limiting the amount of time you spend on the phone. When not in use, cell phone wi-fi and other wireless devices should be turned off.
