OMCell / ANSES (2012-2015)
Full title: Millimeter waves and nerve cells
Duration: Dec. 2012 – Dec. 2015
Funded by: French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health and Safety (ANSES)
Role: in charge of the antenna design and dosimetry part of the project
Short description:
The project dealt with the study of possible modifications at the cellular level (neuron-like cellular model) after exposure at millimeter waves under near-field conditions using cell-to-cell analysis. As a part of the project, we focused on development of specific near-field exposure and multi-physics dosimetry tools in an anechoic environment.
Compact range antenna with enhanced efficiency and uniformity of exposure
