TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Evaluation of human exposure to single electromagnetic pulses of arbitrary shape JO - Central European journal of public health A1 - Jelinek, Lukas A1 - Pekarek, Ludek SP - 30 EP - 34 VL - 14 IS - 1 N2 - Transient current density J(t) induced in the body of a person exposed to a single magnetic pulse of arbitrary shape or to a magnetic jump is filtered by a convolution integral containing in its kernel the frequency and phase dependence of the basic limit value adopted in a way similar to that used for reference values in the International Commission on Non-lonising Radiation Protection statement. From the obtained time-dependent dimensionless impact function W(J)(t) can immediately be determined whether the exposure to the analysed single event complies with the basic limit. For very slowly varying field, the integral kernel is extended to include the softened ICNIRP basic limit for frequencies lower than 4 Hz.
