Abstract

See full text

A current detector for detecting the high frequency current flowing in a conductor includes a coil of high resistivity material wound around an non-ferromagnetic core. The coil is arranged in a substantially closed loop configuration around the conductor carrying the current to be measured. The ratio of the winding spacing to the cross sectional area of the coil is maintained constant over the length of the winding. A shield of high resistivity material surrounds the coil and is spaced from the coils and the shield has a gap oriented along an azimuth of the closed loop winding and directed orthogonal to the net current direction of the current induced in the coil. The ends of the coil are coupled to a high impedance voltage detector through high resistivity leads and a relatively low value resistor is coupled between the leads to reduce the quality factor. The current detector may be used to detect current flowing in a human body due to the absorption of high frequency incident radiation as an indication of the specific absorption rate of such radiation.
