  Out of the very few studies that paid proper attention to the harmful health
impacts in millimeter-wave (mmW) communications, most of them are concerned
about uplink cases due to closer contact with the human body. Our recent study
revealed that even the human exposure to radio frequency (RF) fields in
downlink mmW technology is not very minimum to be ignored. There were a few RF
exposure mitigation techniques for uplinks, but the downlink scenario is hardly
paid any attention. However, this paper proposes a downlink protocol for mmW
cellular communications that achieves the maximum data rate while keeping the
impacts on human health minimized. Our results show that the proposed technique
lowers both power density (PD) and specific absorption rate (SAR) compared to
the typical protocol, with only slight sacrifice in data rates.
