In this paper, we propose an experimental approach for determining the internal electric field
for exposure evaluation of wireless power transfer (WPT) systems by using measured
magnetic near-field data. Two WPT systems are fabricated and used in the measurements:
one without ferrite tiles, and the other with ferrite tiles and a metal plate. The amplitude and
phase of the magnetic near field in the vicinity of the WPT systems are then measured by

In this paper, we propose an experimental approach for determining the internal electric field for exposure evaluation of wireless power transfer (WPT) systems by using measured magnetic near-field data. Two WPT systems are fabricated and used in the measurements: one without ferrite tiles, and the other with ferrite tiles and a metal plate. The amplitude and phase of the magnetic near field in the vicinity of the WPT systems are then measured by using in-house magnetic-field probes and a near-field measurement system. Numerical dosimetry of human exposure is performed using the measured near field as an incident field in the impedance method to derive the internal electric field strength inside numerical human models. Validation of the proposed approach has been demonstrated by comparing measurement results with those obtained from numerical simulations. Additionally, the coupling factor, which represents the relationship between the incident magnetic field and the induced electric field in the human body, at different distances is derived for realistic exposure scenarios.
