Investigate and analyze the electromagnetic fields levels emitted by cellular base stations in Kirkuk city

Abstract EN

With the entry of mobile phone in Iraqi 2004,communication companies began to install cellular to worsen random ways but they ignore the safety conditions imposed for the health and environment.

This research concern with the risks and damage that may be caused by radiation emitted from Asia cell base stations in Kirkuk city.

Research has been conducted by measuring the power density around base stations using a radiation survey meter model (EMF Strength Meter 480846).

First way of measurements has been accomplished by using a constant height of 2meters above ground for different distances ( 0-300 meters)while the second way at a distance of 150 meters for different levels above ground.

The maximum measured power density is about (0.65mW/m2).

Results indicate that the levels of power density are far below the RF radiation exposure set by (World Health Organization).
