The aim of this study is to evaluate the energy density levels of internet network towers in Mosul city that operate in the 5 GHz frequency band, and then compare the observed energy density levels to national and international standards for radiation protection. In this study, the HF-B8G instrument used to measure the energy density of electromagnetic radiation. The data collected from Internet network towers from both the right and left sides of Mosul city, with the towers' locations determined using the Global Positioning System (GPS). The results of field researches showed that radiofrequency radiation levels are significantly lower than the nationally and globally allowed limits. The highest average power density (PD) within the frequency band (5GH) for the left and right sides of Mosul, respectively, was 0.005362W/m2 and 0.003516W/m2, while the highest recorded value for max power density was 0.00848W/m2 on the left side and 0.007045W/m2 on the right side of the city. The radiation power values recorded at distances of 10, 25, 50, 75,100 meters from the Internet towers, with the results were 0.00149W/m2, 0.017427W/m2, 0.004144W/m2, 0.002041W/m2 and 0.000136W/m2 respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
