Abstract

5G is the next wireless technology that is expected to be launched in 2020. Electromagnetic radiations emitted by mobile phones resulted in considerably higher brain tissue exposure than other radiation sources in the radiofrequency band, which led to concerns about the possible potential health effects from exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) and Millimeter (mm) wave radiations. This paper investigates the effects of 5G radiations for different frequency candidates on human brain. This has been achieved by using Computer Simulation Technology (CST) software by conducting simulations on Specific Anthropomorphic Mannequin (SAM); a model designed according to different international standards representing the average material properties of the head by calculating the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR, a quantitative measure of interaction mechanisms of radiofrequency radiation with the living systems and expressed in watt per kilogram (W/kg) in order to check whether the resulting exposure is safe or not by comparing it to the safety limit of exposure to high frequency radiations set by different international standards.

5G手机辐射对人脑影响的模拟

5G是下一项无线技术，预计将于2020年推出。移动电话发出的电磁辐射造成的脑组织暴露比射频波段的其他辐射源高得多，这导致人们对暴露于射频(RF)和毫米波辐射可能对健康产生潜在影响的担忧。本文研究了不同候选频率的5G辐射对人脑的影响。我们利用电脑模拟技术(CST)软件，在特定拟人化人体模型(SAM)上进行模拟;根据不同的国际标准设计的模型，通过计算比吸收率(SAR)来表示头部的平均材料性能，比吸收率(SAR)是射频辐射与生命系统相互作用机制的定量度量，以瓦特每公斤(W/kg)表示，以便通过将其与不同国际标准规定的高频辐射暴露安全限值进行比较来检查所产生的暴露是否安全。
