Abstract

Overview

With the rollout of the 5G network, concerns regarding the impact of high-frequency electromagnetic fields (EMF) on human health have accelerated. This study utilizes simulations to analyze the specific absorption rate (SAR) and power density (PD) across a range of frequencies impacting various human tissues.

Methodology

Utilizing MATLAB R2019a, this research conducted simulations involving around 40 types of tissues categorized into nerve, connective, epithelial, and muscle tissues. The study explored frequencies ranging from 20 GHz to 100 GHz, calculating SAR and PD values to determine tissue impact.

Findings

• Nerve tissues exhibited the highest sensitivity to 5G frequencies.
• Connective and epithelial tissues showed similar levels of impact.
• Muscle tissues demonstrated the least susceptibility to these frequencies.

Key Comparison

Comparative analysis with other studies underscores significant insights into the differential behavior of tissues under exposure to varying 5G frequencies.

Conclusion

The research underscores the significant influence of 5G on human tissues, emphasizing increased EMF exposure, especially in nerve tissues due to high directionality and smaller cell sizes in 5G networks.
