    This study presents a method for evaluating electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure from multiple sources operating simultaneously across a wide range of frequencies, based on the guidelines defined by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) in its 2020 publication. The proposed approach adopts the normalized exposure ratio, which combines the exposure values from all relevant sources and frequency bands. A key issue addressed in this study is the lack of standardized measurement methods for absorbed power density (S<inf>ab</inf>) in high-frequency bands above 10 GHz, despite the existence of defined exposure limits. A comparison reveals that the difference between the limits for S<inf>ab</inf> and incident power density (S<inf>inc</inf>) for the general public is relatively small when compared to the gap between the general public and occupational exposure limits. Therefore, the use of S<inf>inc</inf> is proposed as a temporary surrogate for S<inf>ab</inf> in frequency ranges where direct measurement is not yet feasible. This approach enables comprehensive exposure assessment from multiple sources under both near-field and far-field conditions. It also serves as a practical alternative while S<inf>ab</inf> measurement techniques for high-frequency applications such as 5G, WiGig, and next-generation wireless technologies are still under development.
