ESCOBAR ORDONEZ, Adolfo; CADAVID RAMIREZ, Héctor  and  APONTE MAYOR, Guillermo. High Frequency Electromagnetic Fields Characterization in Urban Environments. rev.ing. [online]. 2010, n.31, pp.40-46. ISSN 0121-4993.

In this paper the results of electromagnetic field characterization produced by wireless communication systems, such radio, TV antennas and mobile telephone base stations in urban environments are presented. The characterization was carried out in 110 sites in the city of Cali - Colombia during three measurement campaigns. In general, the values found were lower than 5% of the reference level established by the International Commission for the Protection of Non-Ionizing Radiation, ICNIRP (0,2 mW/cm²) and adopted by the Colombian government. However, in three sites the measured values were close to this level and in other two sites the level was exceeded.

Keywords : Base stations; electromagnetic field; mobile telephone; urban environments.
