Radio-frequency radiation safety and health: The new IEEE standard for human exposure to radio-frequency radiation and the current ICNIRP guidelines

摘要

On October 3, 2005, the IEEE Standards Association formally approved a new IEEE C95.1 “Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.” Official publication of the standard by the IEEE was expected by late 2005, or soon thereafter. It is likely that by the time this column appears in print, the formal publication already may have taken place. In any event, the newly approved standard represents a complete revision of and replaces IEEE C95.1-1991. Note that there had been several amendments in the interim, notably in 1999.
