The response of personal exposimeters (PEMs) is studied under diffuse field exposure in indoor environments. A numerical model and a setup for on-body calibration measurements in a reverberation chamber (RC) is proposed for 897–5500 MHz. The proposed numerical simulations are in good agreement with measurements. A difference around 2 dB between their 50% prediction intervals is observed.
