• 5G is the next wireless technology that is expected to be launched in 2020. Electromagnetic radiations emitted by mobile phones resulted in considerably higher brain tissue exposure than other radiation sources in the radiofrequency band, which led to concerns about the possible potential health effects from exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) and Millimeter (mm) wave radiations. This paper investigates the effects of 5G radiations for different frequency candidates on human brain. This has been achieved by using Computer Simulation Technology (CST) software by conducting simulations on Specific Anthropomorphic Mannequin (SAM); a model designed according to different international standards representing the average material properties of the head by calculating the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR, a quantitative measure of interaction mechanisms of radiofrequency radiation with the living systems and expressed in watt per kilogram (W/kg) in order to check whether the resulting exposure is safe or not by comparing it to the safety limit of exposure to high frequency radiations set by different international standards.
