Despite numerous advantages, mobile phones cause serious health issues to people due to electromagnetic radiation. Various head models already exist to study the impact of radiation on a human head. The accuracy of the measurement of power absorbed by different layers of a head should be high. A new head model with six layers is proposed in this paper. Parameters such as dielectric constant, conductivity and mass density of different tissue layers skin, fat, bone, Dura, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and brain are extracted from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) database. To study the impact of radiation in the proposed model, standard planar inverted F-antennas (PIFA) capable to radiate at 1.7 GHz and 2.4 GHz are used. Simulations are performed using ANSYS Electromagnetics Suite. The analysis shows that the specific absorption rate (SAR) in the brain layer decreased in the proposed model when compared to the existing model.

<span>This paper presents a numerical analysis of the specific absorption rate in SAM phantom exposed to electromagnetic field. A two set dipole antenna operating with 1800MHz and 2600MHz were placed parallel to the z-axis and rotated in clockwise from 0<sup>o</sup> (vertical) to 180<sup>o</sup> in steps of 30<sup>o</sup> to investigate the effect of frequency and polarization. The maximum average of 1gram and 10gram of tissue have been presented to show the effect of SAR in SAM phantom model. A comparison of the mass average SAR in head shows the 1g of SAR at 2600MHz is double to 1800MHz frequency. While for 10g of SAR, slightly different for both 1800MHz and 2600MHz.</span>
