Abstract

Electric vehicle wireless power transfer brings additional electromagnetic exposure (EME) risks to the human body, especially those with metal implants. This paper focuses on the safety assessment of human EME with aortic valve stents (AVS), and establishes electromagnetic simulation models for different genders of humans, AVS, and electric vehicle-wireless power transfer (EV-WPT) systems. The transmission power of the EV-WPT system is 11 kW. Considering the uncertainty of the EV-WPT system and AVS in practical use, an efficient deep neural network method is proposed to evaluate the EME safety to different genders of humans. Using the standard limits of the International Committee on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) as the judgment standard, comparing human EME under static conditions, it is demonstrated that AVS can change the distribution of induced electric fields in the human body and increase the risk of human EME. Moreover, the probability of male human EME exceeding the standard limits is 22.78% higher than that of female human.
