Abstract

In this study, a high-resolution anatomical detailed human head model is used to find the exact value of Max. SAR induced inside the parotid gland in order to explore potential correlation between exposure to cellular phone radiation in different positions and parotid gland tumor development. The results show that for a transmitting power of 0.5 W, Max. SAR levels in the parotid gland depend on the handset position and location of the antenna in the handset. The highest value of Max. SAR$_{\mathbf {1g}}$textbf in the gland was 0.62 mW/g happed when the handset is tilted by -20 degree and the antenna is placed at its top part. This value is lower than the ICNIRP/IEEE guidelines limit.
