Abstract

Difference of ICNIRP Guidelines and IEEE C95.1 Standard for Human Protection from Radio-Frequency Exposures Akimasa Hirata, Sachiko Kodera. Difference of ICNIRP Guidelines and IEEE C95.1 Standard for Human Protection from Radio-Frequency Exposures. 2020 International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility - EMC EUROPE. Rome, Italy. 23-25 Sept. 2020. DOI: 10.1109/EMCEUROPE48519.2020.9245744. Abstract Two international guidelines/standard or human protection from electromagnetic field mentioned in World Health Organization, International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and IEEE, have been revised in 2020 and 2019. One of the primary changes in the guidelines/standards are the physical quantities and corresponding limits for radio-frequency exposure above 6 GHz. This article reviews briefly the scientific rationale of the revision together with computational results, focusing the part related to 5G technology. In addition, computational example to relate them will be provided. ieeexplore.ieee.org
