Microwave-induced hearing: some preliminary theoretical observations

J C Lin

    The Journal of Microwave Power
    |September 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    Pulsed microwaves create sound in the head through resonant frequencies. These findings are supported by observed oscillations in mammal ear structures during microwave exposure.

    Area of Science:

    • Bioacoustics
    • Electromagnetic Wave Interaction with Biological Systems

    Background:

    • Auditory sensations can be induced by pulsed microwave exposure.
    • Previous research suggests internal head resonances may explain this phenomenon.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the theoretical basis of auditory sensations from pulsed microwaves.
    • To correlate theoretical resonant frequencies with experimental observations.

    Main Methods:

    • Theoretical analysis of microwave interaction with cranial structures.
    • Recording oscillations from the round window of mammals during microwave irradiation.

    Main Results:

    • Theoretical analysis predicted specific resonant frequencies within the head.
    • Experimental data showed characteristic oscillations at the round window consistent with these frequencies.

    Conclusions:

    • The auditory effect of pulsed microwaves is likely due to internal resonant frequencies.
    • Observed oscillations support the resonance theory for microwave-induced hearing.
