Measurement and calculation of the radiation characteristics of microwave ovens

The radiation of a microwave oven is studied through two ways: measurement and numerical modeling in this paper. The measurements are made under different conditions. From the measurement results, the important radiation characteristic of the microwave oven can be concluded. A numerical modeling of the microwave oven is then established. Based on this model, the radiation of the microwave oven is calculated. The calculation result is well agreed with the measurement result. It has supported our conclusion
