About This Item
IEEE P1528a/D2.0 is an amendment related to the measurement of average specific absorption rate (SAR) in the human head from wireless communications devices. It addresses the use of a CAD file for the human head model, including the SAM phantom, helping refine how electromagnetic exposure is evaluated in fields, waves, and electromagnetics applications. As an inactive draft tied to IEEE 1528-2003, it is relevant to teams that need a clear technical reference for head SAR assessment and model-based test work.
About IEEE P1528a/D2.0
This technical document focuses on an amendment to the established SAR measurement framework for wireless devices used near the head. IEEE P1528a/D2.0 adds guidance connected to a CAD file for the human head model, supporting the SAM phantom approach used in exposure testing. In practice, it helps define how geometry and model data may be handled when evaluating average SAR in a repeatable way. The result is a more precise basis for analysis, measurement setup, and documentation in electromagnetic compatibility and safety-related workflows.
Where is IEEE P1528a/D2.0 used?
IEEE P1528a/D2.0 is most relevant in laboratory and engineering workflows that assess radiofrequency exposure from wireless communications devices placed near the head. It may be used by test engineers, compliance groups, and developers working with handset-style equipment, head phantoms, and simulation or CAD-based model data. The amendment is especially useful where the SAM phantom is part of the evaluation process and where consistent head-model representation supports repeatable SAR measurements.
Importance in practice
In practice, this standard helps improve consistency in SAR-related testing by clarifying how a human head model file should be incorporated into the process. That matters for compliance documentation, comparison of test results, and controlled device design decisions. IEEE P1528a/D2.0 can also reduce ambiguity between modeling and measurement teams when working with the same exposure assessment method. For inactive draft material, it remains valuable as a technical reference when reviewing legacy procedures or archived test requirements.
