Abstract
The fields at 850 MHz and 1.9 GHz were measured in five hospital corridors. The field strength tended to decline with distance at a free-space rate within about 2 m of the source, but at a slower rate when further away. Fields at 1.9 GHz declined more slowly than 850-MHz fields. The implications for hospital EMC management are discussed
