Objective
How strong is the electromagnetic radiation generated by base stations, mobile phones and TV towers? How can these electromagnetic field be measured and characterized? In this project you will learn the basic know-how required to deal and work with radio frequency electromagnetic fields. You will see our microwave laboratory and get familiar with the RF and microwave measurement equipment. Using ExpoM-RF, a personal exposure meter originally developed at the Institute of Electromagnetic Fields, you will be able to track your daily exposure to electromagnetic fields in the frequency range from 87.5 MHz to 5.8 GHz. You will work in groups, design your own study and investigate a topic of your choice.
