Abstract

Overview

In recent decades, the proliferation of telecommunication antennas in residential areas has significantly increased, leading to heightened electromagnetic radiation emitted by these antennas. This study provides a detailed theoretical simulation of the energy flux density of the electromagnetic fields generated by these structures.

Findings

  • The dispersion of electromagnetic energy was modeled using the AutoCad software to visually represent radiation spread.
  • Comparative analysis showed that simulated radiations overlap by 30% with actual measurements, highlighting challenges in accurately capturing environmental interactions like natural and human-made obstacles.
  • The study noted radiation levels ranging from 10 to 10,000 µW/cm2 within 30 meters of antennas. Beyond this distance, the energy levels fluctuated drastically, reducing considerably in square-dependent manner in open spaces.

Conclusion

The simulation underscores the pivotal role of using apt simulation tools for evaluating electromagnetic radiation levels near mobile telecommunication antennas. Despite certain limitations in simulation accuracy due to environmental factors, the tools provide crucial insights into areas where radiation levels exceed safety norms. It also calls for empirical verification of simulated results to ensure community safety around such installations.
