Distance between exposed object and exposure source
4 cm
Chamber
room was shielded by a specially made baldachin (250 x 210 x 230 cm); inside, special radiofrequency-absorbing material (eccosorb) was mounted to avoid reflection of waves
Setup
the signal from a GSM test phone (Ericsson GH 337) was fed to an indoor base stationantenna; two identical antennas were used, one mounted on each side of the participant's head at a distance of 4 cm from the ear, but only the right antenna was used; subjects were seated in a reclining chair in front of a LCD computer screen to watch a DVD during the session
