3.1 General
3.1.1 The SAR measurement procedures described in this Part are primarily intended for testing wireless handsets and similar transmitters that operate next to a person’s head. The test configurations for evaluating body‑worn SAR compliance are also described.
3.1.2 SAR is evaluated using simulated tissue medium contained in a realistic human shaped phantom shell that allows a small diameter, miniature electric field probe to measure the electric field within the tissue regions exposed to the transmitter configured in normal operating positions. Since the RF energy absorption characteristics of human tissues are frequency dependent, the dielectric properties of simulated tissue media used for SAR evaluations must match the target tissue properties specified at the operating frequency range of the device (See Part 2).
