Part 1 of this two-part article shows how a waveguide-source technique can validate specific-absorption-rate (SAR) measurement systems from 5 to 6 GHz.

Safety standards for setting acceptable levels of nonionizing radiation have been established for operating frequencies to 3 GHz.1-3 While such standards cover a wide range of wireless devices, a growing number of consumer wireless devices operate in the range from 5 to 6 GHz, even in the absence of international testing standards. The ...
