Main findings

This IEC/IEEE standard series specifies general and specific requirements for determining peak spatial-average SAR in the human body from wireless communications devices in the 30 MHz to 6 GHz range, using the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. Parts include general FDTD requirements, vehicle-mounted antenna exposure modelling requirements, and mobile phone SAR calculation requirements.

Outcomes measured

  • peak spatial-average specific absorption rate (SAR) determination
  • FDTD method requirements for SAR calculations
  • FDTD modelling requirements for exposure from vehicle mounted antennas
  • FDTD method requirements for SAR calculations of mobile phones

Limitations

  • No study results are presented; this is a standards document describing requirements/methods.
  • No quantitative SAR values, exposure conditions, or validation outcomes are provided in the abstract.
