Abstract

Overview

This standard outlines the best practices for measuring and calculating the electromagnetic fields (EMFs) with respect to human exposure across a frequency range of 0 Hz to 300 GHz. The IEEE C95.3-2021 acts as a revised guideline, superseding previous standards and providing updated protocols in the field.

Findings

  • Key best practices for development, validation, and application of measurement and computation methods for EMF exposure.
  • Consolidation and revision of content from previous standards IEEE Std C95.3™-2002 and IEEE Std C95.3.1™-2010.
  • Offers guidance backed by references to other documents, ensuring a thorough and well-supported methodology, albeit not described in detail within this document.
  • Incorporates examples to elucidate the provided guidance.

Conclusion

This document is designed for professionals well-versed in electromagnetic field theory and those engaged in critical hazard assessments or surveys. The guidelines aim to enhance the safety protocols for human exposure to EMFs, acknowledging the potential health risks associated with electromagnetic fields.
