We study the spectrum of the bremsstrahlung photons coming from the electrons and positrons, which are produced in the strong electromagnetic fields present in peripheral relativistic heavy-ion collisions. We compare different approaches, making use of the exact pair production cross section in heavy-ion collisions as well as the double equivalent photon approximation.
