Electromagnetic Radiation from Mobile Phone near Ear-skull Region
Mobile phones produce radio frequency signal that is transferred as Electromagnetic radiation (EMR). EMR has the ability to penetrate through semi solid substances especially human body's tissues and caused dielectric heating. This effect can be classified as thermal and non thermal radiation....

Mobile phones produce radio frequency signal that is transferred as Electromagnetic radiation (EMR). EMR has the ability to penetrate through semi solid substances especially human body's tissues and caused dielectric heating. This effect can be classified as thermal and non thermal radiation.

When using mobile phone for a longer period of time, this area absorbs EMR easily that can affects human immune systems. This effect resulted the increased of temperature near the ear skull region. Experimental study was conducted by using a volunteer to examine the effect of EMR produced by two different mobile phones with serving frequency of 900MHz and 1800MHz.
