About This Item
IEEE PC95.1/D2.3 is an inactive draft amendment focused on safety levels for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic fields from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, with specific absorption rate (SAR) limits for the pinna. It sits within the fields, waves, and electromagnetics domain and is relevant where RF exposure assessment and localized head-related safety limits are considered. Because it was superseded by C95.1/D2.4, it is most useful for tracking the development of this particular safety requirement.
IEEE PC95.1/D2.3 overview
This technical document addresses an amendment to IEEE Std C95.1-1991 (1999 Ed.) and narrows the discussion to SAR limits for the pinna, the outer ear region. In practical terms, IEEE PC95.1/D2.3 reflects how RF exposure guidance was being refined for a specific anatomical area within a broader electromagnetic safety framework. It is relevant to engineers and compliance teams reviewing historical draft requirements, safety rationale, and the evolution of exposure criteria in RF-related design work.
Typical use cases
IEEE PC95.1/D2.3 may be consulted when evaluating RF-emitting products or test setups that place energy near the head or ear, such as wireless handsets, headsets, portable radios, or other proximity devices. It can also support review of laboratory exposure assessments, safety documentation, and design checks where localized absorption in the pinna matters. In procurement or compliance workflows, it helps identify the specific draft requirements that informed later revisions to head-region RF safety limits.
Why this standard matters
For organizations working with RF safety limits, IEEE PC95.1/D2.3 provides a focused reference for understanding how pinna SAR considerations were handled in a draft amendment. That can be important for legacy product evaluation, internal compliance records, and comparison with later superseding requirements. Using the correct technical document helps reduce ambiguity in safety testing, supports consistent interpretation across teams, and improves traceability when reviewing how exposure limits were defined for human proximity to electromagnetic fields.
