Abstract

In this paper, the dependence of radio-frequency (RF) field absorption on human body dimensions is investigated. The resonance properties of an ellipsoidal homogeneous human model have been investigated in frequency range from 10 MHz to 500 MHz with assistance of CST Microwave Studio program environment. In the article, the simulation of RF field absorption in the ellipsoidal body model has been performed for three various body heights, as well as three widths for a given body height.
