So far, no credible studies have linked radio wave exposure to cancer.

The radar sends radio wave pulses into the ice sheet, and the waves bounce off buried features, informing researchers about the characteristics of the snow and ice layers.

If an aggressor launches a nuclear device of whatever size and detonates it above the atmosphere and in the line of site of its target country, the x-rays and gamma rays emitted by the blast will cause an electromagnetic pulse, or wave a million times stronger than the strongest radio wave.

Now radiologists are touting radio-wave zapping as a viable fourth weapon against smaller tumors.
The chip, in turn, wirelessly powered a radio-wave device that was located a meter away and measured energy from the ear.
His father demanded a lower-quality vocoder that would spare precious radio-wave spectrum.
Alan Greenspan took his short-wave radio to stay in touch with the world.
Poring over maps and relying on short-wave radio broadcasts to other missionaries, they were able to pinpoint where the outbreak was occurring and where it would be most likely to strike next.

Backscatter machines use X-rays, while millimeter wave machines use radio waves.
Television and radio often seemed like a solid wave of slogans, jingles, appeals, attacks.
There will be reductions in medium-wave transmissions for local radio in England where coverage replicates FM.
In addition to the backscatter machines, the TSA has also deployed about 260 millimeter-wave machines which use radio waves and do not emit X-rays.
This development is made possible by a new wave of technology: radio-frequency ID chips the size of pepper grains, broadband wireless and Web-based "dashboards" enabling monitoring and management.
Development of unlicensed radio transmitting devices has already led to a wave of new consumer technologies, including Wi-Fi and other innovations like digital cordless phones and in-home video distribution systems that have generated billions of dollars of economic growth.

Instead of X-ray scanners, European airports will use millimeter-wave scanners that utilize low-energy radio waves.

This computer has no internal power supply, but when a specially designed reader sends out a radio signal, a tiny antenna draws power from the wave and uses it to wake the computer up.
Despite this, the main radio stations will still be broadcast on FM and medium wave as usual while the digital stations - such as 1 Extra and BBC7 - will still be available on satellite, cable, through digital radios and online.
There will also be no reinvestment in long wave, which will lead to the end of Radio 4 on LW in the long term.
An EMP wave a million times stronger than the most powerful radio transmitter would damage or destroy the electrical grid and unshielded electronic devices upon which our society utterly depends.
The packaging for Wave Shield says its product blocks a tiny channel of radio emissions to the ear.
Meanwhile former foreign office minister David Mellor told BBC Radio 4's Today programme it was a tragedy that the wave of international politicians trying to preserve peace had not been present "before the situation got to the terrible state that it is now".
MPs to act outraged when they feel ignored, as they did when Radio Four announced that Yesterday in Parliament would be broadcast only on long wave.
Once word got out that the streets were haywire, however, a wave of garden-variety thugs headed downtown to smash the windows at Radio Shack and walk off with CD players.
CNN: ASIANOW - TIME Asia | Business: Rage Against The Machine
Using millimeter wave technology, which the TSA says emits 10, 000 times less radio frequency than a cell phone, the machine scans a traveler and a robotic image is generated that allows security personnel to detect potential threats -- and, some fear, more -- beneath a person's clothes.
