A phone will emit radiation while sending data, and that radiation will be stronger the closer one is to the phone, but it emits very little while receiving data. The WiFi point or the cell tower do not send directional signals; they broadcast in all directions. When your phone is receiving data, it receives as much radiation from the WiFi or tower as everything and everyone in the same range from the transmitter. Compare it to the light emitted by a ceiling light bulb, with the book you are reading being the equivalent of the phone. | |

While correlated, subject to architecture, the correlation may not be strong and can differ widely from model to model. 2. it would be helpful if you clarify what you mean by 'radiation'. Mobile phones do not emit ionizing radiation, often the generally accepted usage of the term. They do of course emit in the radio (and infrared) band of the electromagnetic spectrum but then so does a clock radio. | |
