Analysis of magnetic fields onboard electric transport systems in regard to human exposure

Recent epidemiological studies suggest a link between transport magnetic fields and certain adverse health effects. Here we present a short review of epidemiological research among transport workers and results of our waveform measurements of complex-spectra magnetic fields encountered onboard DC- and AC-powered transport systems. The obtained measurement information allowed quantitative characterization of specific magnetic field features that could be biologically plausible: frequency and intensity, interaction with DC-field, geometry (e.g. polarization) and other aspects. given in this document.
