Simply switching off your phone data wont completely eliminate radio wave emissions, even when your phone is on standby mode. This is because the phone needs to be connected to a nearby cell tower to be online and available for calls and messages. Therefore, radio waves will still be emitted to maintain the phones connectivity. In addition, there are other passive features, like Bluetooth, which will still emit radiation to remain connected to nearby devices, like Bluetooth speakers, headphones, and TVs.
