ITU-T K.61-2008 Guidance on measurement and numerical prediction of electromagnetic fields for compliance with human exposure limits for telecommunication installations Study Group 5
The Recommendation deals with measurements used for radio-frequency electromagnetic field
strength evaluation to verify that human exposure limits are not exceeded by electromagnetic fields
produced by telecommunication installations in the frequency range 9 kHz to 300 GHz. Also, this
Recommendation gives guidance on computational methods that can be used to achieve a
compliance assessment.
Contact current exposure due to conductive objects irradiated by electromagnetic field is not covered
in this Recommendation.
The exposure due to the use of mobile handsets or other radiating devices used in close proximity to
the human body is not covered. Also, the exposure due to the use of cordless telephone systems and
stationary sets intended for the use in wireless telecommunication networks (e.g., DECT, WLAN,
Bluetooth, etc.) is not covered.
