Survey of radiofrequency radiation levels around GSM base stations and evaluation of measurement uncertainty

Estimated and Measured Values of the Radiofrequency Radiation Power Density around Cellular Base Stations

Theoretical and experimental assessment of radiofrequency exposure due to cellular base station antennas is treated. The calculation of the incident power density of the radiation flux is possible by knowing the antenna’s technical data from the constructor and by defining the position of the exposed person. The free space propagation model in ideal conditions yet allow just a gross assessment ...

Measurement and Computational Modeling of Radio-Frequency Electromagnetic Power Density Around GSM Base Transceiver Station Antennas

Evaluating the power densities emitted by GSM1800 and GSM900 BTS antennas isconducted via two methods. Measurements are carried out in half a square meter grids around twoantennas. CST Microwave STUDIO software is employed to estimate the power densities in order fordetailed antenna and tower modeling and simulation of power density. Finally, measurements obtainedfrom computational and experime...

A Technical Approach to the Evaluation of Radiofrequency Radiation Emissions from Mobile Telephony Base Stations

During the last two decades, the number of macrocell mobile telephony base station antennas emitting radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic radiation (EMR) in residential areas has increased significantly, and therefore much more attention is being paid to RF EMR and its effects on human health. Scientific field measurements of public exposure to RF EMR (specifically to radio frequency radiation) ...

Subjective Symptoms Related to GSM Radiation from Mobile Phone Base Stations: a cross-sectional study

Assessment of RF radiation levels in the vicinity of 60 GSM mobile phone base stations in Iran.

Increasing development of mobile communication infrastructure while enhancing availability of the technology raises concerns among the public, who see more cell towers erected each day, about possible health effects of electromagnetic radiations. Thereon, a survey of radio-frequency radiation from 60 GSM base stations was carried out in Tehran, Iran at several places mostly located in major med...
