Electromagnetic field calculations used for exposure experiments on small animals in TEM-cells

Three-dimensional electromagnetic calculations for loaded transverse electromagnetic (TEM) transmission cells are presented. Based on those calculations a prediction of the perturbation of the standard uniform field in the TEM-cell, due to the scattering by inhomogeneous structures placed inside the cell cavity, is given. The influence of the dimensions of a lossy structure and its position in the TEM-cell on its absorption of the electromagnetic fields is presented. Knowing the perturbation of the uniform field is important for good interpretation of the biological experimental results
