A PubMed-listed study examined whether exposure to 5G New Radio (5G-NR) radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) at 3.6 GHz affects larval development in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Using a custom reverberation-chamber exposure setup and numerical simulations to estimate dose, the authors report slower development at a lower exposure level (46.2 V/m), particularly in nutritionally weakened larvae. At a higher exposure level (182.6 V/m), the study reports dielectric heating that altered development timing and adult size.

This engineering paper reviews and classifies beamforming techniques in 5G New Radio and examines beam management procedures at Layer 1 and Layer 2. It analyzes the spectral spectrogram of Synchronization Signal Blocks (SSBs) to illustrate how configuration parameters influence spectral occupancy and synchronization-related performance in different deployment scenarios, including FR2. The work is framed as technical optimization, with only a general note that such knowledge may inform safety considerations related to EMF exposure.
