Effective Analysis of Human Exposure Conditions with Body-worn Dosimeters in the 2.4 GHz Band

DOI: 10.3791/56525-v
What you'll learn
  • Measure 2.4 GHz radiofrequency exposure using body-worn dosimeters with reduced measurement uncertainty
  • Account for device-induced perturbations in exposure assessment for regulatory compliance
  • Compare dosimetry results across different measurement enclosures
Protocol

This study describes a protocol to measure exposure levels in the 2.4 GHz band, avoiding the uncertainties caused by the use of personal exposimeters as measuring devices. These alterations of the exposure levels should be taken into account, especially in compliance testing, where exposure limits are defined from non-perturbed data.

Difficulty
