Abstract

The paper presents a pilot study over human exposure to radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic field (EMFs) levels generated by the 5G cellular base stations installed in different residential district in city of Iasi, Romania.Also, a comparison with different EMFs levels generated by different mobile phonetechnologies, from our national operators, have been done. Measurement of electromagnetic field levels (instantaneous exposure) expressed in terms of power density levels has been performed in city of Iasi, fom March to November 2021, in nine locations with a high density of cellular base stations. The EMF exposure levels for different mobile communications standards have been measured with an up to date calibrated NARDA SRM 3006 field strength analyser system connected to an isotropic electric field probe. The methodology for measuring the non-ionising electromagnetic radiation levels described by ECC RECOMMENDATION (02)04have been respected.
