A disclosed specific absorption rate measurement system according to an embodiment of the present invention measures a specific absorption rate of electromagnetic waves from a radiating source absorbed in a dielectric medium. The system includes a measurement portion that measures a first electric field vector on an observation surface which is a two-dimensional surface in the dielectric medium; an electric field calculation portion that calculates a second electric field vector in a point excluded from the observation surface in accordance with electric field components of the first electric field vector measured on the observation surface, the electric field components being parallel to the observation surface; and a calculation portion that calculates the specific absorption rate from the calculated second electric field vector.

Specific absorption rate measurement system and method

A specific absorption rate measuring apparatus including a probe configured to measure, in a two-dimensional plane, the amplitude and the phase of an electric or magnetic field generated in a phantom of which electrical properties similar to a human body tissues; an electric and/or magnetic field estimation unit configured to estimate a three-dimensional electric field distribution to be produced from a wave source defined by the two-dimensional electric and magnetic fields at a measuring point, based on the measurement results of the probe; and a specific absorption rate estimation unit configured to estimate a three-dimensional distribution of specific absorption rate based on the estimation result of the electric field estimation unit.
