- Abstract
- Induced current density in the human body is the basic restriction of the electromagnetic field protection guidelines for frequencies <10 MHz. Due to the difficulty of measurement, numerical methods are often used for assessment of basic restrictions. In this paper, induced current distributions are calculated in the high-resolution 3-D adult and child models exposed to magnetic fields between 100 kHz and 10 MHz, which is the frequency range of the resonant wireless power transfer (WPT) systems. For this frequency range, it is difficult to apply the conventional finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method for bioelectric field computation. Thus, the quasi-static FDTD method is used to reduce the number of time steps. The results are analyzed according to different human models, grounding conditions, organs, frequencies, and orientations of the incident magnetic field. In addition, the plane wave exposure is compared with exposure to magnetic field of transmit coil of WPT system. Using the calculation results, the feasibility of the magnetic field reference level in the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection guideline is analyzed.
