Abstract
Electromagnetic compatibility testing plays an important role in the type testing of radiation protection dosemeters in view of technical developments and the associated increase in electromagnetic fields. Lately, the use of inductive charging devices has grown as a user-friendly type of charging mobile-phones. In this article, we investigate their impact on active personal dosemeters (APD). The measurements show a substantial additional dose reading of up to several tens of mSv when exposed to the field of an inductive charger for 20 s. According to the widely used Qi standard, the charging devices operate at frequencies of between 87 kHz and 205 kHz for power transfers between 5 W and 30 W. These parameters fall outside the scope of type-testing standards for APD. An update of the standards might therefore be necessary.
