Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) systems for electric vehicle (EV) typically produce strong electromagnetic (EM) fields nearby. Therefore, it is important to evaluate human-body exposure due to EM fields from the WPT systems. We have been studying so far the exposure assessment in free space. However, the WPT systems for EV are actually positioned near the human foot. However, it is necessary to consider the effect of the ground plane in the exposure evaluation. In this study, in order to investigate the effect, we have calculated the distance characteristics of an external magnetic field strength and internal electric field strength in human bodies when WPT system is put on the PEC ground plane. As a result, it was indicated that the external magnetic field strength and the internal electric field strength for the case of the PEC ground plane may be as large as 142 % and 130 % of those for the free space at the maximum, respectively. In addition we have determined a coupling factor, as described in the IEC standard as a ratio of the external magnetic field strength to the internal electric field strength. As a result, the coupling factor in free space was larger than that for the PEC ground-plane case when the compliance distance is equal to 0.4 m. |
