Electromagnetic field measurements of WIMAX systems using isotropic broadband probes

Summary form only given, as follows. In the context of human exposure to rf, measurements of electromagnetic fields are performed using isotropic broadband probes. Two electric field measurement probes are herein examined. Their responses to different typical WIMAX emissions are analyzed. Results show that these probes are not accurate enough for the next generation OFDM communication systems such as LTE and WIMAX. A new correction method for these probes is proposed for the evaluation of rf exposure due to WIMAX.
