This paper deals with the numerical dosimetry for adult and children models exposed to CW signals of several wireless communication systems (UMTS, WiMax, and Bluetooth) within a partly shielded environment represented by a realistic car model. More than 20 mono- and multi-source exposure scenarios are considered. Computational results demonstrate that, for all considered exposure scenarios, the sp

Micromachining and MEMS for millimeterwave and beyond ­ A review Simsek Demir MEMS technology already proved its maturity in considerable application fields. However, RF MEMS still has more to do to be a key technology in RF applications considering reliability, power handling and switching speeds. On the other hand, the increase in operation frequency may be a benefit for RF MEMS applications. E
