ELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE OF THE HUMAN BODY FOR HF (2-30 MHz) BAND (INITIAL RESULTS)

R. W. Carson, W. E. Innis · 1970

Researchers measured hand-to-hand RF impedance in 16 individuals across the 2 to 30 MHz range using a vector impedance meter with copper tube electrodes. The real part of impedance was approximately the same for all individuals at each frequency, decreasing from about 760 ohms at 2 MHz to about 133 ohms at 30 MHz. These experimental values agreed well with a prior theoretical study. The real part followed an approximately negative exponential pattern across the frequency range.

NEAR FIELD INSTRUMENTATION

A.W. Rudge, R.M. Knox · 1970

The study describes the design, construction, and calibration of a prototype near-field electromagnetic radiation probe with output calibrated in power density. The project was initiated because of difficulties measuring electromagnetic radiation leakage from microwave ovens and the need for improved instruments. The field sensing device selected was a silicon point contact diode and the probe antenna type was a small dipole.

Some Studies on the Biological Effects of Magnetic Fields

Henry Aceto Jr., Cornelius A. Tobias, Ira Lee Silver · 1970

The authors reviewed observed effects of magnetic fields reported by others along with aspects of their own work. Beischer measured cardiophysiology changes in squirrel monkeys exposed to constant magnetic fields up to nearly 10° gauss, finding a pulsating electrical dipole generated by blood movement superimposed on the ECG. Neurophysiologic effects range from neuronal inhibition in cockroaches to increased reaction rates in humans. Amer studied the coupling of magnetic fields with temperature, ionizing radiation, and oxygen tension on Tribolium confusum development, using molting failures and wing abnormalities as indices.
