TLDR
The highest total personal RF-EMF exposure was measured inside transport vehicles and was well below international exposure limits, mainly due to mobile phone handsets.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Personal radiofrequency electromagnetic field measurements in the Netherlands: Exposure level and variability for everyday activities, times of day and types of area
John Bolte,T. Eikelboom +1 more
TL;DR: The highest mean exposure relates to the activities with high people density, such as travelling by public transport, visiting social events, pubs or shopping malls, and the highest exposure peaks in the WiFi band, up to 0.265 W/m(2), come from stray radiation of microwave ovens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electromagnetic field exposure assessment in Europe radiofrequency fields (10 MHz-6 GHz).
TL;DR: An overview of the scientific literature on RF EMF exposure in Europe is presented and three population exposure categories (intermittent variable partial body exposure, intermittent variable low-level whole-body (WB) exposure and continuous low- level WB exposure) were recognized by the authors as informative for possible future risk assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calibration and uncertainties in personal exposure measurements of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields.
TL;DR: It is found from calibration tests for the 12 frequency bands of the EME Spy 121 exposimeter in a Gigahertz Transverse Electromagnetic cell and an Open Area Test Site, that these measurements tend to underestimate the actual exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of RF exposures from emerging wireless communication technologies in different environments.
TL;DR: In situ electromagnetic (EM) radio frequency (RF) exposure to base stations of emerging wireless technologies is assessed at 311 locations, 68 indoor and 243 outdoor, spread over 35 areas in three European countries by performing narrowband spectrum analyzer measurements.

Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields Exposure Assessment in Indoor Environments: A Review
Emma Chiaramello,Marta Bonato,Serena Fiocchi,Gabriella Tognola,Marta Parazzini,Paolo Ravazzani,Joe Wiart +6 more
TL;DR: The contribution of different RF-EMF sources to the total level of exposure was found to show slightly different patterns among the indoor environments, but this finding has to be considered as a time-dependent picture of the continuous evolving exposure to RF- EMF.

Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields (up to 300 GHz)
TL;DR: The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)—was established as a successor to the IRPA/INIRC, which developed a number of health criteria documents on NIR as part of WHO’s Environmental Health Criteria Programme, sponsored by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).

TL;DR: Exposure to RF-EMF varied considerably between persons and locations but was fairly consistent within persons.

Feasibility of future epidemiological studies on possible health effects of mobile phone base stations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors concluded that in principle, base station epidemiological studies are feasible, however, the exposure contributions from all relevant radio frequency sources have to be taken into account.

TL;DR: This paper proposes procedures for the measurement of personal exposure to RF-EMF, data collection, data management and analysis, and methods for the selection and instruction of study participants, and identifies two basic types of personal RF- EMF measurement studies: population surveys and microenvironmental measurements.
