Microwave dosimeters for domestic use

Abstract

Nowadays the growing microwave environmental contamination including home space can become a real challenge to all the residents. We present new portable devices, which provide a continuous remote monitoring of the microwave home background. These three different designs allow monitoring four main human microwave safety characteristics: SA — specific absorbed energy; MPE — maximum permissible exposure; SAR — specific absorption rate, and PD — power density. One may set a specific alarm level to match it with individual microwave sensitivity for personal precaution. New microwave dosimeters may work in professional, occupational and personal modes in smart home applications.
