Summary:
|
Exclusion zones are described by the compliance boundaries around radio base station and transmitting stations in which the electromagnetic fields may exceed the RF-EMF exposure limits. The general public shall not have access to those areas. The exclusion zones are also defined for occupational exposure. Those areas are generally positioned on rooftops in urban or suburban locations. Their shape and dimension may be different depending on the regulations.
This Recommendation includes information on how the zones should be determined based on the data concerning operating frequencies and EIRP on each of the operating frequencies. It also includes information on cases in which there is no exclusion zones.
For example, those on masts, especially in rural areas, do not need any materialization as the general public does not have any access to this zone and the access for the workers is also limited and existing usually in the front of the transmitting antennas. Furthermore, some other transmitters do not need any compliance boundary as the installed power level is too low.
