The outcome of electromagnetic Radiated Emissions has risky result on human health. However, telecom service providers are bothered about quality of service of mobile services after fulfilment of firm rules about cell tower radiations. In this paper we have studied the electromagnetic radiation exposure under the super cyclone storm YAAS and also we have observed electric field strength, magnetic field strength, power density and also some atmospheric parameters. Analyses has been captured by using Electromagnetic field strength Meter- KM 195. Electromagnetic radiation is produced primarily by GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) technology of wireless communication built on the electromagnetic emitters (GSM antennas) necessary for encompassing wider territorial areas. Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) generate non-ionizing Radio Frequency (RF) energy that is radiated across its antennas into space.

Abstract


The outcome of electromagnetic Radiated Emissions has risky result on human health. However, telecom service providers are bothered about quality of service of mobile services after fulfilment of firm rules about cell tower radiations. In this paper we have studied the electromagnetic radiation exposure under the super cyclone storm YAAS and also we have observed electric field strength, magnetic field strength, power density and also some atmospheric parameters. Analyses has been captured by using Electromagnetic field strength Meter- KM 195. Electromagnetic radiation is produced primarily by GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) technology of wireless communication built on the electromagnetic emitters (GSM antennas) necessary for encompassing wider territorial areas. Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) generate non-ionizing Radio Frequency (RF) energy that is radiated across its antennas into space.
