Abstract:
The goal of this work is to explore the electromagnetic field strength and radiation
emitted by cell phone tower base station in residential areas of rural Bangladesh and
its health effect on human body. The work is mainly divided into three main areas.
The first area is an investigation of the magnetic fields in village environment. Second
one is to measure the RF radiation. Electromagnetic field strength and RF radiation
from mobile towers at a different selected locality in Barisal are measured. Frequency
spectrum at different sites isalso measured. At the third phase measurement of
different type health symptoms of RF exposure faced by the inhabitants from the
tower are analyzed and compared.
