Jan 1, 2026
This exposure assessment measured outdoor micro-environment RF-EMF levels in daily-life settings across urban and suburban locations in Japan using a portable device (50 MHz–6 GHz) with GPS. Reported exposure levels were higher in urban areas, with railway stations showing the highest levels among the environments…

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 measured personal RF electric field strength in multiple indoor and outdoor micro-environments in Malaysia using an ExpoM-RF 4 meter and modeled exposure with machine learning (FCNN, XG Boost) and linear regression. Reported exposures were usually below the stated public limit (61.4 V/m), but…
Assessing EMF Exposure in Greek Urban and Suburban Areas During 5G Deployment: A Focus on 5G EMF Levels and Distance Correlation
Research

Jan 1, 2025
This exposure assessment reports 400 ground-level electric field measurements in Greek urban and suburban areas during 5G deployment. It finds that 4G contributes most to overall measured EMF exposure, while 5G currently contributes less. The study reports an inverse relationship between 3.5 GHz EMF levels and…

Jan 1, 2021
This cross-sectional survey in five French cities assessed whether measured RF-EMF exposure from mobile-phone base stations was associated with self-reported non-specific and insomnia-like symptoms among residents living within 250 m of a base station. Overall, measured base-station exposure was not associated with…
3D GIS for surface modelling of magnetic fields generated by overhead power lines and their validation in a complex urban area.

Jan 1, 2021
This paper presents a 3D GIS approach to model magnetic fields from overhead high-voltage power lines while accounting for terrain relief and cable catenary. The model was validated against extensive field measurements in two complex urban environments and showed good agreement with measured values, though accuracy…
Use of portable exposure meters for comparing mobile phone base station radiation in different types of areas in the cities of Basel and Amsterdam.

Jan 1, 2014
This exposure assessment study used portable exposure meters to characterize variability and repeatability of mobile phone base station RF-EMF measurements in urban areas of Basel and Amsterdam. Reported exposure levels varied by area type and city, with downtown/business areas showing higher ranges than residential…
