Abstract
The 5G mobile telephony has become one of the worldwide most anticipated technology, which is followed by strong controversy regarding potentially dangerous health effects. This technology relies on electromagnetic field (EMF) emission from its network base stations, increasing the level of existing EMF in the environment. Consequently, this fact has initiated deep concerns of the public, who demanded overall investigation and monitoring of the inevitable 5G EMF exposure. In the last decade, the wireless sensors networks for EMF monitoring emerged as an innovative approach for effective analysis of EMF in the environment. The latest one is the Serbian EMF RATEL network, which offers a sophisticated approach of telecommunication service-based EMF monitoring. This network performs wideband monitoring, counting the EMF contribution of all active EMF sources in a predetermined frequency sub-band. In this paper, the preliminary EMF monitoring of 5G is presented, explaining technical details on the used Narda AMS 8061 sensor, the acquisition process, as well as the analysis and dissemination of the measurement results. The EMF RATEL is envisioned to be a support for the control and management of EMFs in upcoming smart-city ecosystems, in which is expected that will display intensive EMF radiation in living surrounding, regarding various telecommunication services.
