Calculation of SAR and Measurement of Temperature Change of Human Head Due To The Mobile Phone Waves At Frequencies 900 MHz and 1800 MHz
Abstract
Today, cell phone technology is an integral part of everyday life and its use is not only restricted to voice conversations but also conveying news, high resolution pictures and internet. As the number of mobile phone usage increased exponentially nowadays, issues related to the electromagnetic radiation produce by mobile phone is becoming a big concern in the society. Mobile phone produced electromagnetic waves and when placed near the ear skull, will produce electromagnetic radiation so called thermal effect. The transfer of electromagnetic field to the body producing thermal effect leads to heating of body tissue at specific rate. This effect is differ depending on the period of time the mobile phone being used and type of mobile phone. This paper discussed on the result of thermal distribution generated by handheld mobile phone towards human head via collection of image from thermal imaging camera. The analysis is conducted in an anechoic chamber with average of 45 minutes talking hour with two different types of mobile phone, internal and external antenna serving different radio frequency range, 900 MHz and 1800 MHz . The results showed an increased of heat especially at the place near the ear skull after 45 minutes of operation. When comparing both different types of mobile phone, mobile phone with external antenna produce more heat compared to mobile phone with internal antenna.
Key words: Electromagnetic Radiation of 900 MHz and 1800 MHz Frequencies , Handheld Device, Thermal Effect, Non Thermal Effect
