This dosimetry study used FDTD simulations at 28 GHz to evaluate how skin stratification and anthropomorphic modeling affect absorbed power density (APD) estimates. APD was higher with stratified skin than with homogeneous skin for a wearable patch antenna (16%–30% higher), while plane-wave differences were smaller (

Jan 1, 2025
This exposure-assessment study uses FDTD simulations to evaluate auto-induced downlink RF-EMF exposure at 3.5 GHz when downlink energy is focused toward user equipment near the head. Exposure varied substantially by device position (ear, eyes, nose) and by the precoding technique used. The authors report that the…

Jan 1, 2015
This paper presents a near-field RF exposure assessment method comparing standard SAR estimation from E-field measurements in tissue-simulating liquid with a proposed approach based on incident H-field measurements. Experiments were conducted at 900, 1800, and 2450 MHz using dipole antennas and a flat phantom, with…
Plasmonic array nanoantennas on layered substrates: modeling and radiation characteristics.

Jan 1, 2009
This theoretical/engineering study models arrays of plasmonic core-shell nano-radiators positioned over layered substrates using a Green's function dipole approach. The model is validated with full-wave FDTD simulations. The authors report that nanoparticle arraying and multilayer substrate design can be used to…
