This research utilizes R-Card to reduce SAR induced by the radiation from a handset. A monopole handset antenna is used here because its characteristics are well known, and can be used as a reference to justify the outcome of this study. Different R-Card configurations including variations in impedance profiles and sizes are applied to study the SAR reduction. The R-Card has several unique and favorable features, such as light weight, thin thickness, and small footprint. Further more; it is available in the market and therefore suitable for use on handset SAR reduction. As long as we use the appropriate impedance profile and the proper size R-Card to cover some part of the handset, the SAR will be reduced and the communication quality will be maintained as well. For the above reason, this is a very good solution to the handset designers to reduce handset’s SAR.
