Abstract
The analysis of channel power and electric field strength at various locations from mobile base stations using power sensor, spectrum analyzer and log-periodic antenna revealed maximum potential exposure between the range of 61.1 and 254.7 m. Generally, the potential exposure values ranged from 0.0717 to 0.8950 mW m-2 with a maximum deviation of 22.22%. GSM900 was found to be more pronounced than GSM1800 and UMTS2100. Though the results complied with ICNIRP reference levels with a wide margin of 0.01%, it was higher than some previous work and South African mean value of 0.16 mW m-2, agreed with similar work elsewhere but lower than a global average value of 0.730 mW m-2.
