  • Abstract
    Summary form only given, as follows. A novel W-band (75–110 GHz) exposure system was designed, characterized and tested to be used for identifying millimeter wave (mmW) exposure parameters (frequency, modulation schemes and electric field magnitude) that could accelerate recovery from fatigue in skeletal muscle. The system allows electrical stimulation of muscle and measurement of contractile force during mmW exposure. Design and characterization of the exposure system were performed using the Finite-difference Time-Domain method and experimental measurements.
