3.4.1 Introduction
The BTS emits RF radiation (radiation hazard). Operators have to follow the related local
regulations when erecting the BTS.
Operators of BTSs must also follow the related local regulations when erecting the BTS.
3.4.2 Limits and Guidelines on Exposure to Electromagnetic
Fields
There are a number of international regulations, standards and guidelines for exposure to
electromagnetic fields. Several European countries have adopted the recommendation of the
council of the European Union. It was released on July 12, 1999 focusing on the harmful
effects of exposure to electromagnetic fields (1999/519/EC). The recommendation is based on
the guideline published by the ICNIRP.
Table 3-1 gives a comparison among regulations and reference levels applied in different
countries.

Reference levels are provided for exposure assessment to determine whether the basic
restriction on exposure of humans to electromagnetic fields is exceeded. The basic restriction
on exposure to electromagnetic fields is based on established health effects and biological
considerations.
3.4.3 Location of Base Transceiver Station
The base transceiver station (BTS) is shielded from RF radiation hazards. The pBTS3701
does not cause danger to the public and workers under normal operation condition.
The pBTS3701 shall be regularly monitored and inspected after installation.
3.4.4 Prediction of the Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields
The section provides a theoretical approach to calculate possible exposure to electromagnetic
radiation around a BTS antenna. Precise statements are possible either with measurements or
complex calculations considering the complexity of the environment, such as soil conditions,
nearby buildings and other obstacles. The complexity may cause reflections and deflection,
scattering of electromagnetic fields.
The maximum output power (given in EIRP) of a BTS is usually limited by license conditions
of the network operator.
For the pBTS3701, the maximum output power of the TRX is.500 mW (27dBm).
A rough estimation of the expected exposure in power flux density on a given point can be
made with the following equation:
Where
P = Maximum output power in W
G numeric = Numeric gain (see below)
r = Distance between the antenna and the point of exposure in meters
For the calculation of the numeric Gain:

z All lifting appliances must be thoroughly checked before the work is started.
3.5.1 Safety Guide on Ladder Use
Checking the Ladder
Before using the ladder, first check if the ladder is in good condition. Make sure that you
know the maximum weight that the ladder can support; overweight on the ladder is strictly
prohibited.
Placing the Ladder
Slant angle is suggested to be 75 degrees. The slant can be measured with the angle square or
with arms. When using a ladder, place the wider end of the ladder on the ground. Otherwise,
take protective measures on the base part of the ladder to avoid skidding. Place the ladder on
stable ground.
Climbing the Ladder
When climbing the ladder, note the following.
z Ensure the gravity center of your body does not deviate from the ladder edge.
z To lessen the danger and ensure the safety, hold your balance on the ladder before any
operation.
z Do not climb higher than the forth highest step of the ladder.
z If you are about to climb to the top, the length of the ladder shall be one meter higher
than the eave.
