This study examined the possible effect of analog (835.62 MHz FMCW) or digital (847.74 MHz CDMA) signals comparable to those used in cellular telephony affected the progression of 9L tumor cells implanted in Fischer 344 rats. Exposure occured four hours a day, five days a week, from one month prior to and continuing for 150 days after tumor cell injection.

No effect on 9L tumor growth were found from FMCW or CDMA exposure.
