ITU-T Recommendations

Supplement 32 to ITU-T K-series Recommendations presents results of case studies of radio frequency-electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) exposure levels, including fifth generation (5G) systems, taken in different conditions and areas. All results of EMF exposure assessment were delivered by ITU-T members and include calculations and measurements of the RF-EMF exposure levels in the vicinity of different radio communication systems. RF-EMF exposure levels vary depending on the environment in which they are taken and type of radio communication systems that are in operation.The results included in Supplement 32 to ITU-T K-series Recommendations provide information about RF-EMF exposure levels in real situations. The EMF exposure assessments are included in appendices.Supplement 32 to ITU-T K-series Recommendations aims mainly to resolve the problem of EMF compliance assessments of base station systems through typical case studies including computation evaluation and measurement evaluation, and also provides the case support on implementation of Supplement 16 to ITU-T K-series Recommendations and of IEC 62232.
