Abstract :
We focus on presenting engineering design data applicable for the proper estimation of typical antenna-human interactions. Accurate configurations of human biological tissues and antennas can be used via the FDTD method. However, our attempt has been to present parametric data useful for link budget evaluation, absorption loss estimation, etc. To this end, we use the eigenfunction expansion method for rapid computations and concentrate on the 900 MHz and 1.9 GHz bands.
