Abstract :
In this paper, electromagnetic field levels in the vicinity of UHF-band TV/FM stations are presented. Measurements were performed in order to determine the compliance with exposure limits for the general public. The total exposure levels from eighteen stations at seven sites at distances of 183 to 5,406 m were within a range of 0.03 to 1.62 V/m. The highest level was found to correspond to about 0.3 % compared with ICNIRP guidelines.
