Abstract/Description
-
A three-dimensional finite difference time domain analysis of a saline water phantom used in industry for testing body-mounted receivers is presented. Specifically, a saline water phantom known as "Salty" is analyzed. Salty is an acrylic circular cylinder which is filled with a saline solution. The fields at the center of the cylinder and 1 cm external to the surface of the cylinder are obtained with the FDTD method for normally incident TMz and TEz plane wave excitation in free space. The...
Show moreA three-dimensional finite difference time domain analysis of a saline water phantom used in industry for testing body-mounted receivers is presented. Specifically, a saline water phantom known as "Salty" is analyzed. Salty is an acrylic circular cylinder which is filled with a saline solution. The fields at the center of the cylinder and 1 cm external to the surface of the cylinder are obtained with the FDTD method for normally incident TMz and TEz plane wave excitation in free space. The results from the FDTD simulation are then compared to the closed-form solution, which is obtained by assuming that Salty is infinitely long. A low dielectric constant simulated human body which emulates the performance of Salty is designed using the closed-form solution for the near fields of a two-layer cylinder and its performance is verified with the FDTD method.
