- Abstract:
- The features of sound waves excited by microwave
impulses (at 915 and 2375 MHz) were studied, using spherical
flasks filled with ethanol or 0.1 M NaCl in water as models
of the human head. A piezoceramic transducer was used to
register mechanical oscillations of the flask's surface. The
results suggest that the auditory effects of microwaves are
caused by stimulation of mechanical oscillations in the
liquid (or the head tissues) by electromagnetic energy,
followed by the bone-effected transfer of the absorbed
energy to the auditory organs.
