Effects of metallic spectacles on SAR when using communications enabled PDAs in front of the face Chinthana Panagamuwa William Whittow Robert Edwards Lei Ma J. C.

We consider dipole sources resonating at 900MHz and 1800MHz as well as three communications enabled PDAs operating in the GSM900 band. 2008-05-21 07:43:16 untagged Mechanical Engineering not elsewhere classified
