I don't know what the standards call for but it is quite possible for a person
to be subjected to an E-field exceeding 500 V/m very near to an amateur radio
station. This is the field at my operating position when I am transmitting at
1.8 MHz. A cell phone held close to the body will cause a field, at the body,
of over 30 V/m.

Subject: Heart pacemakers - Vulnerability to EM



Hi all

 

Heart pacemakers may be vulnerable to Electro Magnetic energy.  Has anyone
idea about safe immunity levels ? about relevant standards regarding this
matter ?

 

Thanks !
