Personal Dosimetry of Microwave Electromagnetic Radiation. Long-Term Experiments with a “MERA” Device

In this paper, we present the measurement results of the dynamics of the level of electromagnetic microwave radiation obtained using “MERA” personal dosimeters developed at the Kotelnikov Institute of Radioengineering and Electronics, Russian Academy of Sciences. The measurements were performed under various conditions: in Russia and foreign countries, in megacities and resort areas, day and night, and in public transport and airplanes. The data obtained based on direct long-term measurements allows assessing the real electromagnetic microwave load exerted by modern means of mobile communications on the environment surrounding a person.
