Table 7. 6. Limit values for health effects upon exposure to electromagnetic field from 6 GHz to 300 GHz
Frequency rate, f
Limit values for health effects related to radiation density [W/m-2]
6 ≤ f ≤ 300 GHz
50
Note 7.6-1: Effect density is calculated as the mean value for 20 cm2 of exposed area. The local maximum effect density, calculated as the mean value for 1 cm2, should not exceed 20 times 50 Wm-2. The effect density from 6 to 10 GHz is calculated as the mean value for a six-minute period. For more than 10 GHz the effect density is calculated as the mean value over a 68/f1.05 -minute-period (where f is the frequency in GHz) to compensate for the gradual decline in penetration depth as the frequency increases.
