The electromagnetic field leakage levels of nonionizing radiation from a microwave oven have been estimated within a complex
indoor scenario. By employing a hybrid simulation technique, based on coupling full wave simulation with an in-house developed
deterministic 3D ray launching code, estimations of the observed electric field values can be obtained for the complete indoor
scenario. The microwave oven can be modeled as a time- and frequency-dependent radiating source, in which leakage, basically
from the microwave oven door, is propagated along the complete indoor scenario interacting with all of the elements present in it.
Thismethod can be of aid in order to assess the impact of such devices on expected exposure levels, allowing adequate minimization
strategies such as optimal location to be applied. [--]
