Abstract :
In this paper, the human exposure to electromagnetic field radiated from the RFID anti-theft gate system is analyzed. Anti-theft gate system is based on two parallel coaxial square loop antennas. Simplified parallelepiped human body model is used for the SAR calculation. The obtained results were analyzed according to ICNIRP guidelines and were found to be below appropriate limits, regarding both occupational and public exposure.
