摘要:Today, the use of mobile phones has become an integral part of human life. With the increase of mobile phone subscribers, the number of BTS antennas in cities and villages has increased day by day, and as a result, the exposure to microwave waves from these antennas has become a concern. The study of the horizontal pattern of microwave radiation from BTS antennas with respect to the type of antennas and surrounding buildings is examined in the city of Maragheh in East Azerbaijan Province. The required information was determined through the city telecommunications organization and field monitoring. Then the measurements were performed with SPECTRAN 4060 according to IEEE STD C95.1 standard method. Data analysis was performed with SPSS software and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests and Mann-Whitney test. In this study, the type of operator has an effect on the results and according to the type of operator, different results were obtained on the effect of the type of buildings around the antennas and the type of installation on the amount of wave propagation. Antenna installation in a crowded area due to more microwave radiation need more attention. All measurements were much lower than the ICNIRP allowable limits.
