- Abstract
- Using scaled models for an anatomical head model and a simple head model, we investigated the effects of head size on specific absorption rate characteristics for two mobile phones operating at 835 MHz and 1765 MHz. Our results showed that a larger head produced a higher localized SAR at 835 MHz. However, at 1765 MHz, the differences among the head models were insignificant since the superficial absorption was dominant over the effects of head shape and size. A larger head produced a lower whole-head averaged SAR at both frequencies.
