Abstract :
This paper describes an NPL project for providing traceability for SAR measurement in mobile phone dosimetry. Electric field implantable probe calibration facilities have been developed for this purpose. Computer simulation has been used to assist in analysing the uncertainty budgets for these calibrations. A new international intercomparison has been proposed for measurement of this parameter.
