4 Occupational Exposure Limits for Laser Radiation in the Workplace
4.1 Terms and Definitions
4.1.1 Ultra high frequency radiation
It is also known as ultra-short wave, which is electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of 30MHz~3.0MHz or a wave length of 10m~1m, including pulse wave and continuous wave.
4.1.2 Pulse wave
It is an ultra high frequency radiation produced by impulse modulation.
4.1.3 Continuous wave
It is an ultra high frequency radiation produced by continuous vibration.
4.1.4 Power density
It is the radiated power of a unit area and represented by P and the unit is mW/cm2.
4.2 Health Requirements
See Table 1 for occupational exposure limits for ultra high frequency radiation in one working day.
