STUDY OF ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION ON FLOWER

Abstract

Electromagnetic Radiation comes out from different electrical, or electronics gadget used for Lab as well as household purposes. As many circuits of household, industrial, and communication systems operate at close proximity of each other and one such circuit can affect the performance of other nearby circuits adversely via inadvertent couplings of their signal through near and far region, propagating electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic waves generated by different wireless systems like mobile systems, satellite systems, other microwave links, etc. facilitates our communications throughout the world. Thus the hazard of electromagnetic radiation causes interference among these instruments and at the same time affects the living cells which includes both plant and animal cells. Here our research is to study the electromagnetic radiation of all these instruments including mobile phones on the plant cells. For the purpose of this study, here Hibiscus Flower is taken, exposed to electromagnetic radiation for the different time interval with a constant power and at certain temperature. It is observed that the physical condition of the flower as well as dielectric constants is changed. Here, in this case the dielectric properties have been measured on a flower named Hibiscus (petals) using open ended coaxial probe technique at four different temperature levels i.e. at 0th hour, after 1hour, after 2hours and after 3 hours. There are the dielectrics properties for mentioned flowers have been measured and plotted graphically within frequency range of 0.02 GHz to 8.5 GHz at many sample points. Another important observation is that the condition of Hibiscus petals at different time interval after exposing electronic magnetic radiation from Horn Antenna. From this study we can get an idea that how electromagnetic radiation can be affected for plants.
