  • Title: [Electromagnetic radiation in the radiofrequency range: radiation safety].
    Author: Davydov BI.
    Journal: Kosm Biol Aviakosm Med; 1986; 20(2):15-24. PubMed ID: 3702305.
    Abstract:
    Existing safety standards for electromagnetic radiation in the radio frequency range, including microwave radiation, adopted in the USSR, Great Britain, Poland, Czechoslovakia, USA, Canada, FRG and recommended by IRPA/INIRC are described. It is proposed to use the value 0.4 W/kg as the basic value of an absorbed dose rate which corresponds to the energy flux density 100 W/m2 for frequencies over 2 GHz. The concepts of an effective dose rate and effective dose are discussed. Various questions of how to provide safety of those working with electromagnetic radiations are considered.
