Abstract
There exists safety concern for exposure to electromagnetic fields. The adverse health effect due to electromagnetic field has been summarized in documents of World Health Organization. To protect the human from electromagnetic fields, a two-tier approach has then been applied in our daily life. First, the exposure standards are developed based on the threshold of adverse health effect. The limit of induced physical quantities in the human body, such as induced electric field and specific absorption rate (SAR), are derived considering the reduction (safety) factor. The safety of the products should be assessed following the method of product standards. In this lecture, the relationship between these two types of standards is discussed including the rationale from engineering viewpoint from extremely low frequencies to millimeter waves. Recent standardization related to 5G wireless communications system is also summarized. In addition, the research necessity in this research field is mentioned.
The IEEE International Instrumentation & Measurement Technology Conference (I2MTC) 2022
will be held in Ottawa, Canada on May 16-19, 2022.
The IEEE I2MTC is the flagship conference of the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society and is dedicated to advances in measurement methodologies, measurement systems, instrumentation and sensors in all areas of science and technology. These features make I2MTC a unique event and one of the most important conferences in the field of instrumentation and measurement.
