This dosimetry study simulated fetal RF-EMF exposure between 2.45 and 5 GHz during the second trimester, estimating SAR10g in fetal brain and lungs. The presence of a belly-button piercing increased SAR, with maxima reported at 2.45 GHz (16 mW/kg in lungs; 14 mW/kg in brain). Despite these increases, all SAR values…

This engineering/modeling study derived external electric field values from peak average 10 g SAR in a realistic human head model exposed to plane waves at 500–2500 MHz. The derived fields were compared with IEEE and ICNIRP reference levels across multiple incident directions and polarizations. The authors report…
