Improving the efficiency of measurement procedures for assessing human exposure in the vicinity of mobile phone (GSM/DCS/UMTS) base stations

Abstract: Standards stipulate 6-min time interval of averaging for measurements of radio-frequency electromagnetic fields to assess human exposure to non-ionising radiation. Having in mind the base stations of public land mobile systems, the time interval defined in such a way noticeably limits the number of measuring points in practical applications. In this paper, based on the results of measurements in the vicinity of a multisystem base station (Global System for Mobile Communications [GSM], Digital Communication Sys… Show more

“…The exposure level for each hour is obtained by averaging the testing values of repeated measurements in that period. The settings of the spectrum analyzer are shown in Table 1 based on the methods in previous papers [10][11][12][13]. …”

“…Observation time for averaging, as recommended in the standards, is 6 min [1]. In [23] it is shown that for shortterm exposure assessment an even shorter duration, of 0.5 min, will be sufficient. Power (expressed in dBm) is converted to E-field strength (expressed in V m −1 ) by considering the antenna factor (AF), the cable loss (A RF ) and the impedance Z = 50 of the RF cable:…”

“…The actual situation is highlighted via measuring the GSM frequency-based electromagnetic environment parameters as electric field, magnetic field or electromagnetic power density which are spread to the house and street of the cities (Wu et al 2012). Also, measurements are necessary to compare them Downloaded by [New York University] at 00:03 10 June 2015 with standards to verify whether the electromagnetic exposure levels are appropriate for limits (Neskovic et al 2011). Electromagnetic field distribution measurements can be used to determine compliance with exposure limits (Higashiyama, Tarusawa 2011).…”
