Abstract

A correction factor dependent upon frequency, type of phantom, and incident polarization, which should be applied to the measured specific absorption rate is proposed for homogeneous phantoms. It is shown for an application of occupational exposure in the neighborhood of a base station antenna that this correction factor not underestimates realistic exposure of workers. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
