1. Conclusion

Damping of radiated electromagnetic power was measured with the StarWorld cover ap-

plied to the iPhone 4S. The product did attenuate field strength with 91 %.

2. Introduction

RadiCover sells and market products for damping electromagnetic radiation from

handheld devices, in order to reduce human exposure of electromagnetic field. In that

context they contacted DELTA, to make measurements on the damping of radiated elec-

tromagnetic field of their RadiCover Anti-radiation SmartPhone Cover applied. The

measurements have been done as free field measurements with the cell phone forced to

maximum transmission power.

3. Test results

Measurements were done as far field measurements and over the entire sphere around

the phone. During measurement a call from a communication tester was established and

the cell phone was controlled by the communication tester and output power of the cell

phone was set to maximum.

First a reference measurement was done on an iPhone 4S with no protective cover. Af-

terwards the measurement was repeated with the same iPhone 4S with StarWorld cover

applied and the phone mounted in the same position. By comparing the results of these

two measurements one can state an attenuation of the radiated field.

The scale used in the enclosed plots is all in dBm EIRP. To calculate the attenuation of

the radiation in percentage, units should first be converted to a linear unit (e.g. Watt).

Radiated power was integrated over the hemisphere in front and on back side of the

phone and the entire sphere containing the phone.

For reference Fig. 3.1 gives the coordinate system used in the DELTA antenna facility.

Positive Y direction is in front of the phone, positive Z direction is towards the top of the

phone, and positive X direction is to the left of the phone (the side with the volume con-

trol).
