This in vitro study evaluated SAR and erythrocyte membrane stability during exposure to a fully textile wearable antenna at 2.41 GHz under realistic (6.3 mW) and conservative (450 mW) input power conditions. It reports 1 g average SARs of 0.5758 W/kg and 41.13 W/kg, respectively. For membrane stability at 6.3 mW,…
