Abstract

Abundant applications of wireless devices raise growing health concerns among public users. Efforts to display definite relation between human exposure to wireless RF radiation and health diseases' appearance are not yet conclusive. Causal relationship and defined correlations are yet to be demonstrated. Case study of Acoustic Neuroma ear's pathology is estimated with respect to SAR distribution at typical physical appearances. In this paper, homogeneous and heterogeneous models are employed for SAR evaluation at Acoustic Neuroma region, yielding values of 1.4 Watt/Kg and 0.4 Watt/Kg, respectively. Though values are below known limits, heat absorption could initiate some of this disease eruption.
