Abstract
A novel radio-wave exposure equipment system is developed for studies on thermal perception thresholds of biological effects exposed to millimeter-wave at 70 GHz band that is one of 5th generation wireless systems (5G) candidate frequency band. To achieve high duty RF exposure on living body at 70 GHz required, we newly designed a lens antenna that can irradiate focused beam. In order to obtain basic exposure performance of the developed equipment, we used physical phantom that simulated human's skin and achieved experimental measurements of temperature rise during at 70 GHz band millimeter-wave exposure. After 60 seconds exposure, the temperature on expected area of the phantom surface increased 0.6 degree Celsius. In summary, developed equipment can achieve required high exposure on the sample.
