I am attempting to determine the best approach for determining human exposure in a magnetic field where there the field is non-uniform over the whole human body. The frequency is such that SAR is of interest. IEEE C95.1 recommends averaging 10 vertical measurements to approximate whole body exposure. Canada's Safety Guide 6 requires measurements over a 9 point matrix. I have noticed that several EMF exposure standards refer to a "Standard Man" when determining SAR, yet the standards do not contain references for the parameters for "Standard Man" other than a height of 1.75 m. Where can I find a recognized standard method of measuring whole body average exposure to a non-uniform magnetic field in the range where SAR is the dominating effect?
