Comparative Analysis of Methods for Calculating the Energy Flux Density used in Assessing the Permissible Level of Environmental Pollution by Electromagnetic Radiation

Summary/Abstract: In this article, the results of measurements and calculations of the power flux density in the frequency range 670 MHz-766 MHz (46th and 57th television channels) of digital broadcasting of the DVBT2 standard were presented. Experimental data on the power flux density were obtained by the selective electromagnetic field meters NARDA SRM-3000 with an isotropic antenna. The radiating system consists of 16 panel antennas (four-storey panel antennas) with a circular radiation pattern in the horizontal plane. Calculations were carried out in the ПК АЭМО (Software package for electromagnetic environment analysis) and MMANA programs. The data obtained were compared with the permissible exposure limit (PEL) of energy flux density (EFD) set by health and safety rules and standards (2.1.8/2.2.4.1383-03), which operate on the territory of Russia.The values obtained are significantly less than the acceptable levels. In the USA, Japan, European countries, Canada, China, and the PEL of energy flux density in the frequency range 300 MHz – 300 GHz are higher than in Russia.
