Electromagnetic radiation in the vicinity of GSM/UMTS base station

As a result of dense installations of public mobile base station, additional electromagnetic radiation occurs in the living environment. Research group of accredited Radio-communications Laboratory, has been involved in human exposure assessments of GSM/UMTS base stations for over 15 years. Within these activities over 2200 base station locations (indoor, masts and locations with installations on buildings) of 5 GSM/UMTS mobile operators in Serbia and in Montenegro were analysed, by simulation and/or measurements. The results of extensive electromagnetic field strength measurements will be presented. Further, it was shown that the measurement process can be significantly accelerated by using shorter time intervals of averaging, while not compromising too much on measurement quality.
