Abstract
Most of the existing standards and guidelines for electromagnetic exposure on human body for the frequency range up to 10 MHz use the parameters of contact and induced currents, as basic limits. There are several numerical methods to calculate the reference levels - easy to be measured. But most of the real exposures occur in the near-field, in non uniform fields. It is also difficult, to evaluate local, partial body exposures, such from reradiating objects, etc.
