A fully automated and geographically distributed network for the continuous measurement of the RF radiation-"Hermes" project

A fully automated monitoring system performing measurements of the RF electric field strength in several sites is presented. The system consists of the remote stations and the central control unit. The remote monitoring stations are geographically distributed and the data collection is achieved via the GSM network. The development of software tools eliminates any human intervention. The measured electric field is compared to the reference levels defined in the Greek standards (2000) and the results are presented to the public on a regular basis using the "Hermes" web site (Ref.2). The measured electric field values from the remote stations are significantly below the reference levels.
