The modelled electromagnetic field (EMF) source was a rectangular microstrip antenna designed at resonance frequency in free space at 865 MHz. The SAR values in the body exposed to EMF 5 cm away from the UHF RFID readers need consideration with respect to general public exposure limits, when the radiated power exceeds 8 W.engVoRhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Biomedical engineeringEnvironmental engineeringNumerical simulationsOccupational exposurePublic healthSpecific energy absorption rate (SAR)RadioFrequency IDentification (RFID)Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS)Atribución 4.0 Internacional824010.3390/ecsa-7-082402673-4591Engineering proceedingsopen access
