		Mobile phones use 'radio waves' to transmit signals.
		Mobile phone frequencies are actually right on the border between radio waves and microwaves, so their emissions are sometimes referred to as microwaves.
		By contrast radio waves, such as in mobile phones, are at the other end of the spectrum.
