Experimental Quasi-Microwave Whole-Body Averaged SAR Estimation Method Using Cylindrical-External Field Scanning
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this study is to develop a new whole-body averaged specific absorption rate (SAR) estimation method based on the external-cylindrical field scanning technique. This technique is adopted with the goal of simplifying the dosimetry estimation of human phantoms that have different postures or sizes. An experimental scaled model system is constructed. In order to examine the validity of the proposed method for realistic human models, we discuss the pros and cons of measurements and numerical analyses based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. We consider the anatomical European human phantoms and planewave in the 2 GHz mobile phone frequency band. The measured wholebody averaged SAR results obtained by the proposed method are compared with the results of the FDTD analyses. key words: whole-body averaged SAR, field measurement, scaled model, mobile phone frequency, plane-wave exposure system

متن کاملA Formula for Simply Estimating Body Core Temperature Rise in Humans Due to Microwave Exposures
Biological effects due to RF whole-body exposure can be caused by core temperature rise. According to safety guidelines, therefore, whole-body averaged specific absorption rate (WBA-SAR) is being used as a metric for human protection. The threshold level causing thermal effects was determined based on animal experimental results. In order to investigate the relationship between WBA-SAR and core...

There has been increasing public concern about the adverse health effects of human exposure to electromagnetic waves. In the radiofrequency and microwave (MW) ranges, elevated temperature (1-2 C) resulting from energy absorption is known to be a dominant factor inducing adverse health effects such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Whole-body average specific absorption rate (SAR) is used as a...
