Abstract

In order to reduce the specific absorption rate(SAR) in a human head exposed to electromagnetic fields radiated by a cellular phone, we have analyzed an electromagnetic wave absorber attached to the handset. A manufactured electromagnetic wave absorber was composed of Mn - Zn, which had complex relative permittivity of 7.30-j0.05 and permeability of 2.20-i1.55. The SAR value from the electromagnetic wave absorber attachment was calculated by using the nonuniform finite difference time domain(FDTD) algorithm and measured by phantom model at 835 MHz. The SAR reduction due to the electromagnetic wave absorber are about 18 % at 835 MHz. The V.S.W.R and radiation pattern of antenna are good agreement with the normal antenna. The gain reduction due to the electromagnetic wave absorber are only 0.3 dB at 835 MHz. But the sensitivity of cellular phone generally improves about 1 dB.

본 논문은 휴대폰 전자파에 노출된 항부에서 SAR 값을 저감하기 위하여 전자파 흡수체를 단말기 표면에 부착하여 해석 및 측정하였다. 개발된 전자파 흡수체는 Mn-Zn계로 구성되었으며, 유전율은 7.30-j0.05 이고, 투자율은 2.20-j1.55이다 전자파 흡수체 부착에 의한 SAR 값은 비선형 FDTD 알고리즘을 적용하여 계산하였으며, 동작주파수 835 MHz에서 phantom 모델을 제작하여 SAR 값을 측정하였다. 그 결과, 전자파 흡수체 부착에 의한 SAR 값은 약 18 % 감소하였고, 안테나의 정재파비 및 패턴은 기존의 것과 거의 일치하였으며, 이득은 약 0.3 dB 감소하였다. 그러나 휴대폰의 수신감도는 전반적으로 약 1 dB 향상되었다.
