Wire Antenna Theory Applied to the Assessment of the Radiation Hazard in the Vicinity of the GSM Base Stations

Abstract

Safety aspects of the GSM base station radiation concerning human health have been analysed. The numerical modelling of the human body was performed by utilizing the antenna theory and BEM numerical procedure. The simplified model of the body represented by thick cylindrical scatterer placed vertically on the perfect conducting ground was used. Measurements of the radiated fields have been done at a few sites, and the results were incorporated in the numerical calculations as an incident field.
