Abstract:
Constant concern for quality of life and the use of advanced industrial technologies has led, in the late twentieth century, at an explosion of the number of sources of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation from microwave and radio frequency band. In the same time increased the public interest and specialists for health risk assessment. In this paper the presented case study aims to ionizing radiation monitoring across multiple sources transceiver, to take implicative factors by risk reduction measures in order to increase the safety and health at workplaces. In this respect, the monitoring has been carried out to different sources of electromagnetic field in special services: army, air traffic, police, fire or emergency services. Measuring equipment is RADIATION METERS FOR ISOTROPIC MEASUREMENT OF ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS, EMR-300 with probes to measure the electric field and power density-the absolute error ± 2 dB. As a result of electromagnetic field measuring, the obtained values were particularly high in the case of emission-reception stations, GSM-gateway type during the emision at distances of less than 15 cm.Risks arising from exposure to electromagnetic fields should be eliminated or mitigated in accordance with the law, taking into account of technical progress and the availability of measures to control the risk.
