ICNIRP: Definition of ICNIRP 2004 weighted waveband
Description
ICNIRP 2004 BSWF waveband constructor. This BSWF is used for the
determination of exposure limits (EL) for workers, and includes a safety margin
as it is based on eye and the non-pathologic response of the most sensitive
human skin types when not tanned.
Usage
ICNIRP(norm = 270, w.low = 210, w.high = 400)
Arguments
norm
normalization wavelength (nm)
w.low
short-end boundary wavelength (nm)
w.high
long-end boundary wavelength (nm)
Value
a waveband object defining wavelength range, weighting function
and normalization wavelength.
