Oblique Plane Wave Exposure at 24 GHz of an Advanced Female Anthropomorphic Model

The growing use of millimeter-wave frequencies, in both wireless communication technologies and medical applications highlights the need for a more thorough understanding of their interaction with human tissues. This paper presents an advanced computational analysis of the interaction between electromagnetic plane waves at 24 GHz and a detailed human chest model. Simulations were conducted using two numerical models: a reference model (Ella) and an enhanced model (Venus), the latter developed through 3D modeling techniques to more accurately represent the female chest in an upright position. The study specifically investigates the electric field distribution and the comparison of the results between the two models emphasizes the differences in electromagnetic wave-tissue interactions. The findings highlight the critical need for anatomically precise models that represent the natural upright posture to enhance safety evaluations and drive advancements in the medical use of mm-waves.
