Characterization and Evaluation of a Commercial WLAN System for Human Provocation Studies

Table 1

Peak SAR averaged over 10 g of contiguous tissue calculated by computational dosimetry over some cerebral tissues of the two anatomical adult models (“Ella” and “Duke”). The levels were obtained by considering a nominal input power of 20 dBm (100 mW) and a duty cycle of 100% of the Wi-Fi signal.

Forehead skin	22.77	10.37
Grey matter	2.70	1.60
White matter	1.16	0.73
Cerebellum	0.06	0.02
Hippocampus	0.04	<0.01
Hypothalamus	0.01	<0.01
Midbrain	0.01	<0.01
Pons	<0.01	<0.01
Thalamus	0.02	<0.01
