An Ultra-Wideband Antenna with Triple Band-Notched Characteristics for Wearable Application by Rashid, M. A. A, Shah, S. M, Majid, H. A, Musa, U, Suriani, N. S

“…Nevertheless, the antenna is able to reject the WiMAX and C-band as well as the WLAN band. The simulated specific absorption rate (SAR) results show that the antenna complies with the SAR limit Federal Communication Commission (FCC) and International Commission of Non-Ionizing Radiation Protections (ICNIRP) standards for 1 mW input power. …”
