“…Yahya et al [ 53 ] have performed in-silico simulations: a jammer with three antennas tuned on three different frequencies (i.e., 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, and 2100 MHz) has been tested with three different human models: Eartha, Ella (both from the Virtual Family [ 37 ]) and the visible human (VH) phantom, at four different distances between the jammer and the human model (20 cm, 50 cm, 100 cm, and 200 cm). By means of computational techniques, the SAR values normalized to an input power of 1 W have been calculated and the results showed that, at the shortest distance, the highest value of the whole-body averaged SAR was 6.90 × 10 −3 W/kg, found in the Eartha model, and at the greatest distance the whole-body averaged SAR decreased to 4.98 × 10 −5 W/kg in the VH model.…”

(1) Background: Radiofrequency radiations are used in most devices in current use and, consequently, the assessment of the human exposure to the radiofrequency radiations has become an issue of strong interest. Even if in the military field there is wide use of radiofrequency devices, a clear picture on the exposure assessment to the electromagnetic field of the human beings in the military scenario is still missing. (2) Methods: a review of the scientific literature regarding the assessment of the exposure of the military personnel to the RF specific to the military environment, was performed. (3) Results: the review has been performed grouping the scientific literature by the typology of military devices to which the military personnel can be exposed to. The military devices have been classified in four main classes, according to their intended use: communication devices, localization/surveillance devices, jammers and EM directed-energy weapons. (4) Discussion and Conclusions: The review showed that in the exposure conditions here evaluated, there were only occasional situations of overexposure, whereas in the majority of the conditions the exposure was below the worker exposure limits. Nevertheless, the limited number of studies and the lack of exposure assessment studies for some devices prevent us to draw definitive conclusions and encourage further studies on military exposure assessment.
