Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the interactions among multiple human bodies, modeled by multilayered cylinders, exposed to microwaves. Cylinders are used because it is very difficult to compute the whole-body average specific absorption rate (SAR) at higher frequencies using a realistic human model. The average SAR is numerically discussed for a typical case of the linear array of two and three adult body models when the wave is vertically incident to the array.
