Abstract

Influence of EM radiation at 900 MHz on mollusk neuron placed in TEM cell is investigated. TEM cell model for 900 MHz after numerical study is manufactured and validated. Spatial absorption rate and temperature rise is calculated using FDTD method. Performed series of experiments with experimental results are presented and discussed. Results of experimental investigation RF EMF influence on the neuron functional activity-habituation, which is regarded as simplest kind of learning are presented
