© The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2016.In this study, numerical dosimetry of a code division multiple access (CDMA)/global system of mobile, digital cellular service (DCS)/personal communications service (PCS) and third generation signal jammer working with three antennas is presented. Three anatomical full human body models of different ages and gender exposed to the signal jammer electromagnetic (EM) waves at 900, 1800 and 2100 MHz, simultaneously, are numerically modelled using a high-resolution finite-difference time-domain gridding; solved by a full-wave three-dimensional EM simulation software on a high-performance workstation machine. The average specific absorption rate (SAR) in the whole human body and the peak spatial SAR averaged over 1 g induced in the head and torso biological tissues were evaluated at different distances from the signal jammer above a ground consisting of concrete and soil layers. The maximum radiated power by the signal jammer at different distances against the human body was calculated for the safe exposure in compliance with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)/American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Federal Communications Commission (FCC) standard limits.
