EFFECT OF TONGUE JEWELLERY AND ORTHODONTIST METALLIC BRACES ON THE SAR DUE TO MOBILE PHONES IN DIFFERENT ANATOMICAL HUMAN HEAD MODELS INCLUDING CHILDREN

摘要

This paper has used the Finite-difference Time-domain (FDTD) computer simulation technique to investigate Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) in different human head models with metallic jewellery. A dipole excitation has been placed in front of the nose of 4 anatomical heads including a 5 year old and a 12 year old child's head. Metallic tongue jewellery and orthodontist metallic braces were added to the models and the SAR was investigated over a range of communication frequencies.
