Estimation of EMF for base stations using signal decoding technique

Abstract

In this paper, EMF radiated from base stations was evaluated using signal decoding technique for LTE FDD communication system. We also applied the decoding technique to the fifth generation (5 G) new radio (NR) structure to estimate EMF radiation. The signal decoding technique is a logical method, which the radiated field is estimated based on constant signals transmitted by a base station such as reference signal (4G) and synchronization signal block burst (5G). However, the measured results showed that the received field strength is significantly influenced by fading in the real environment.
