Research
RF Safe Research Library
Jan 1, 2025
This exposure assessment used 146 indoor and outdoor spot measurements in 2023 across Belgium, Switzerland, Hungary, and Poland to characterize 5G (3.6 GHz) and cumulative RF EMF incident power density in public spaces and educational institutions. Reported maximum 5G-specific incident power density was 10.4 mW/m2…

Jan 1, 2025
This exposure assessment performed RF spot measurements in line-of-sight to 56 active 5G macro base stations across 30 publicly accessible UK locations. Power density was measured across 420 MHz–6 GHz under multiple scenarios (background, streaming, downlink speed test, and extrapolated SS-RSRP decoding). Reported…

Jan 1, 2018
This exposure assessment study estimated occupational RF electric-field exposure among workers at 4 broadcast centers in Poland using spot measurements and historical occupational hygiene data. Reported maximum and average electric-field values were below the Polish occupational exposure limit for a work shift. The…
The role of the location of personal exposimeters on the human body in their use for assessing exposure to the electromagnetic field in the radiofrequency range 98-2450 MHz and compliance analysis: evaluation by virtual measurements

Jan 1, 2015
This study used numerical modeling with a human body model to evaluate how the placement of a single body-worn personal exposimeter affects RF electric-field measurements in the 98–2450 MHz range. Across 256 simulated exposure scenarios, the body substantially altered measured values compared with the unperturbed…
No effects of power line frequency extremely low frequency electromagnetic field exposure on selected neurobehavior tests of workers inspecting transformers and distribution line stations versus controls

Jan 1, 2014
This study evaluated whether occupational 50 Hz ELF-EMF exposure near transformers and distribution power lines affects performance on several computer-based neurobehavior tests. Spot measurements found some electric-field locations above a national occupational standard, while all magnetic-field spots were below the…

Jan 1, 2014
This workplace exposure assessment reports extensive spot measurements of ELF electric and magnetic fields in a UPS factory across test areas, production lines, and power substations. The highest fields were observed in test areas (up to 992.0 V/m and 215.6 µT). The authors state that measured levels were below…
