Investigation of Relationship between ELF Magnetic Field and Induced Current Inside Human Body

Comparison of Human Models Used for Induced Current Calculation

Abstract

Estimation of induced current inside a human body exposed to ELF (extremely low frequency) magnetic field are still remaining as an important issue. There are many computational studies reporting the relationship between outer magnetic filed and induced current inside the human body. In addition, there are some limit values regarding human exposure to magnetic field based on the induced current density. Here, we investigated and compared the relationship between magnetic field and induced current among existing literatures and guidelines. The result showed that each estimated value of magnetically induced current varied widely.
