Basic standard for the in-situ measurement of electromagnetic field strength related to human exposure in the vicinity of base stations

This European Standard specifies in the vicinity of base station as defined in 3.2 the measurement methods, the measurement systems and the post processing that shall be used to determine in-situ the electromagnetic field for human exposure assessment in the frequency range 100 kHz to 300 GHz.

Grundnorm für die Messung der elektromagnetischen Feldstärke am Aufstell- und Betriebsort von Basisstationen in Bezug auf die Sicherheit von in ihrer Nähe befindlichen Personen

Diese Grundnorm legt die Messverfahren, die Messsysteme sowie die Nachbearbeitung für Messungen in der Nähe von Basisstationen, wie sie in 3.2 festgelegt sind, fest, um damit die elektromagnetischen Felder am Aufstell- und Betriebsort der Basisstationen im Hinblick auf die Beurteilung der Sicherheit von Personen in elektromagnetischen Feldern im Frequenzbereich 100 kHz bis 300 GHz zu bestimmen.

Norme de base pour la mesure du champ électromagnétique sur site, en relation avec l’exposition du corps humain à proximité des stations de base

La présente Norme Européenne spécifie les méthodes de mesure, les systèmes de mesure et le post-traitement qui doivent être mis en oeuvre pour déterminer sur site, le champ électromagnétique pour l'évaluation de l'exposition du corps humain à proximité des stations de base, telles que définies au 3.2, dans la gamme de fréquences de 100 kHz à 300 GHz.

Osnovni standard za terensko merjenje jakosti elektromagnetnega polja v zvezi z izpostavljenostjo ljudi v okolici baznih postaj

Ta evropski standard določa merilne metode in sisteme ter naknadno obdelavo v okolici baznih postaj, kot je določeno v poglavju 3.2, za terensko merjenje elektromagnetnega polja v zvezi z izpostavljenostjo ljudi v frekvenčnem območju 100 kHz–300 GHz.

Foreword
This European Standard was prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 106X, Electromagnetic
fields in the human environment.
The text of the draft was submitted to the formal vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 50492 on
2008-09-01.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2009-09-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2011-09-01
This European Standard has been prepared under Mandate M/305 given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essential requirements of EC Directive
RTTED (1999/5/EC).
