Microwave Radiation
In April 1998, ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection)
published its ´Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic, and
electromagnetic fields (up to 300GHz)´. As shown in Table 2.2-1, the guidelines (Tables 6 and
7) specify the ´Reference levels on power density for occupational exposure and general
public exposure to time-varying electric and magnetic fields (unperturbed rms values)´
between 2 and 300 GHz.

Note: For pulsed signals, it is suggested that the peak equivalent plane wave power density, as averaged over the
pulse width, does not exceed 1000 times the Seq exposure levels given in the table.
Note: Within the frequency range the 10 – 300 GHz the basic restrictions are identical to the reference levels.
Remarks on the definition of basic restrictions:
1. Power densities are to be averaged over any 20 cm
2 of exposed area and any 68/f1.05 minute period (where f is in
GHz) to compensate for progressively shorter penetration depth as the frequency increases.
