This paper analyses information on standards and norms for electromagnetic radiation in wireless communication systems, including cellular mobile communication networks. It is shown that in the CENELEC, ANSI / IEEE, FCC standards, the accepted levels of safe EMR for the population in the 900-1900 MHz range are from 400 to 1000 μW/cm2, which is much higher than the levels of a safe electromagnetic background - 10 μW/cm2. In this regard, from the viewpoint of environmental safety, it is concluded that it is necessary to revise the standards and reduce the values of safe levels to the values close to electromagnetic background levels.
