EM Wave Effects upon the Human Body Using UWB Antennas
Keywords:
Biological tissue, CST microwave studio, specific absorption rate (SAR), ultra-wideband (UWB) antennaAbstract
This paper presents a calculation of Electro
Magnetic Wave and its effects on a part of the human body by
using a Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) code. The
analysis is on the electromagnetic field penetration and a
thermal effect of radiofrequency signal in structures, which
represent estimates of human biological tissue. A model of
human hand was created by using CST Microwave Studio and
an irradiation by microwaves of frequency range used by UWB
antenna of (3.1 – 10.6GHz) was simulated. The thermal
distribution in the model was calculated and numerical
estimates of the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) inside the body
tissue were compared for different frequencies and positions.
