  • Introduction

    Magnetic field variation is perpendicular to electric field

    A single frequency electromagnetic Wave exhibits a sinusoidal variation of electric and magnetic field space .

    Electromagnetic waves transport energy through empty space , stored in the propagating electric and magnetic

    Aim: To confirm LTE base station compliance as per the limits specified by DoT. Electric fields are created by differences in voltage.

    Magnetic fields are created when electric current flows. The Electromagnetic field (EMF) can be viewed as the combination of an electric field and a magnetic field. Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) of Mobile Network produce EM fields. Frequency of the signal radiated from these sources determine important characteristic of the EM field.

    EMF is measured in the form of Power Density whose unit is W/m2 and is dependent on the frequency band at which it is being radiated FSL=92.45+20 log f(GHz)*d(Km)

  • EMF exposure zones

    EMF exposure assessment is made if

    the intentional emitters are present, and

    conducted for all locations where people might be exposed to EMF in course of their normal activities.

    All such exposures to EMF pertain to one of these three zones

    Compliance zone

    Occupational zone

    Exceedance zone

    Exceedance zone

    Occupational Zone Compliance Zone

  • Exposure level assessment

    the worst emission conditions;

    the simultaneous presence of several EMF sources, even at different frequencies.

    The assessment of the exposure level shall consider:

    the maximum EIRP of the antenna system

    the antenna gain G or the relative numeric gain F including maximum gain and beam width

    the frequency of operation

    various characteristics of the installation, antenna location,

    antenna height,

    beam direction,

    beam tilt and

    the assessment of the probability that a person could be exposed to the EMF.

    The following parameters should be considered:

  • Regulatory Bodies for EMF SACFA(standing Advisory Committee on Frequency Allocation )

    Site clearance from view of interference ,aviation hazards and obstruction to any other microwave links .

    Municipal and Gram panchayat authority clearance

    ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionization Protection)

    Determine exposure limits for electromagnetic fields by devices such as cellular phones .

    TERM Cells(Telecom Enforcement, Resource and Monitoring Cells)

    Test 10% of BTS sites randomly as per the procedure prescribed by TEC (TELECOM ENGINEERING CENTER)

    Control over illegal operation of telecom networks by vested interests having no license

    To file FIR against culprits, pursue the cases, issue notices indicating violation of conditions of various Acts in force from time to time.

    Analysis of call/subscription/traffic data of various licensees.

    To ascertain that the licensee is providing the services within permitted area.

    Constitution of Inter Ministerial Committee(IMC)

    Consist of DoT officers , Indian Council of Medical Research ,Department of Bio Technology , Minister of Environment and Forest

    Lab Studies where unable to find direct link between exposure to radio frequency radiation and health

    IMC recommended for the lowering mobile towers EMF exposure limits to the 1/10th of the exiting prescribed limit

  • EIRP-Effective Isotropic Radiated Power Calculation

    Total EIRP (EIRP [T]) calculation for each Operator for worst sector

    To calculate the total EIRP (EIRP [T]) for an operator, the EIRP of the BCCH Channel (Pilot Channel in case of CDMA) is worked out as follows:

    The EIRP [T] is then given by:

    Whereas for LTE, 3G & CDMA m-Diversity factor=1, n-ATPC factor=1,N=Carriers / Sector(Worst sector)

    Whereas for GSM m-Diversity factor=0.9, n-ATPC factor=0.9

    If it is a shared site, similar calculation are made for the other operators and total ratio

    For successful compliance of EMF (EIRP/EIRPth) should be

  • Operator1-EIRP CALCULATION

    Total EIRP (EIRP [T]) for Operator 1: To calculate the total EIRP (EIRP [T]) for an operator1, the EIRP of the BCCH Channel is worked out as follows: EIRP (BCCH) = Tx Power Combiner Loss (Cable Length x Unit Loss) + Antenna Gain (dBm) The EIRP [T] is then given by: EIRP [T] =EIRP (BCCH) watts +EIRP (BCCH) watts x m x n x (N 1) Where m-Diversity factor=0.9, n-ATPC factor=0.9,N=Carriers / Sector So, EIRP(BCCH) for Operator 1 =46-0-0+16 =62 dBm = 1584.89 watts Hence EIRP[T]= 1584.89 + 1584.89 *0.9*0.9*(6-1)=8003.71 watts

    h= 9Mtr (Antenna height AGL Building height),Asl=0.02, =8, bw=6.5 Applying formula as above & taking minimum of condition1 & condition2 ,EIRPth comes as =990.01 Hence EIRP[T]/EIRPth= 8003.71/990.01=8.08

    As it is a shared site, similar calculation are made for the other operator2 and total ratio calculated as under: (EIRP/EIRPth) = (EIRP [T]/EIRPth) Op1 + (EIRP [T]/EIRPth) Op2
