MVG Launches the SARLite, a Smart, Compact and Fast SAR Measurement Device

Microwave Vision Group (Paris:ALMIC), leader in antenna
measurement solutions, introduces SARLite, a new piece of
measurement equipment that evaluates the Specific Absorption Rate
(SAR) of wireless devices in a few seconds.
SAR is the quantity characterizing the absorption of
electromagnetic wave energy from any type of radiating device such
as a mobile phone, laptop, or a tablet PC into the human head or
body.
SAR measurements are traditionally performed by using an
electric field probe encased in a phantom (artificial head) filled
with a liquid. The dielectric properties of the liquid are
representative of head or body tissues. The probe is moved inside
the phantom by a robot, making it possible to obtain discrete
E-field values.
SARLite simplifies and accelerates the traditional SAR
measurement method. With 265 probes and 651 sensors in a 3D matrix
design, an area greater than 20 x 20 cm can be measured in only a
few seconds. SARLite is capable of measuring a frequency
bandwidth from 800 MHz to 3 GHz, without manipulation of the
liquid, in this case, a wideband tissue simulant gel sealed inside
the device. The sealed device also means no evaporation and no need
to refill or replace the gel.
SARLite measures the E-field values emitted from mobile
devices in order to tune electromagnetic radiation and is
applicable at various stages in the R&D process.
SARLite can be used alone or as a complement to
traditional SAR measurement systems to pre-test equipment in
development, better preparing it for certification.
“Today, the number of protocols (4G, WiFi, WiMAX, Bluetooth,
etc.) covering a wide range of frequency bands is increasing at an
exponential rate. With this comes a significant increase in the
time needed to measure SAR and obtain certification. The SARLite is
a fast and compact solution. MVG drives to bring solutions that
anticipate technological evolution and user needs. In this case,
the development of SARLite presents the direction MVG is taking in
this domain,” says Philippe Garreau, CEO of Microwave Vision.Find
