Real-Time Measurement and Analysis of Electromagnetic Fields from Some Typical Base Transceiver Stations

In this study, RF electromagnetic field (EMF) levels produced by GSM 900, and GSM 2100 cellular base stations installed in various locations in Sitapur, UP, India, are measured and evaluated. Utilizing a Selective Radiation Meter (SRM-3006) to detect the power density of EMF levels close to cellular base stations is the measurement technique. An acceptable distance from the cellular base station was used to take the measurement. For the research of EMF levels, four different cellular base station locations in Sitapur, UP, India were selected. The measured results are compared to international standards including the Department of Telecommunication (DoT), Government of India (GoI), and International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) standards. As a consequence of the research, it has been determined that there are no negative effects on human health or the environment in the area chosen for the study because all measured values of power densities fall well below the established set criteria.
