There have been several studies done, with conflicting results, on the effects of cell-phone radiation on the human body. The amount of radiation emitted from most cell phones is very minute. However, given the close proximity of the phone to the head, it is entirely possible for the radiation to cause harm. If you want to be on the safe side, the easiest way to minimize the radiation you are exposed to is to position the antenna as far from your head as possible. Utilizing a hands-free kit, a car-kit antenna or a cell phone whose antenna is even a couple of inches farther from the head can do this most effectively. This paper makes a contribution to that discussion by proposing a new approach by employing adaptive active control algorithms combined with a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna system to suppress the electromagnetic field at a certain area in space. We will also investigate the effects of the size and number of MIMO antenna elements and test the algorithms at different carrier frequencies (e.g., other GSM bands and UMTS).
