The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) launched a technical survey to measure mobile radiation levels across the UAE.
Measurement locations include hospitals, schools, public spaces and residential neighbourhoods in the Emirates.
The survey will measure radiation levels of a chosen sample of 50 base stations for both UAE-licenced telecom operators to ensure that both the regulatory policy and the ICNIRP international standards are met as part of TRA’s commitment to ensuring the safety of citizens and residents across the UAE.
Majed Almesmar, Deputy Director-General for Telecommunications Sector in TRA, stated: “We launched this survey to ensure that emissions from the communications sites comply with the general public exposure limits set down by the International Commission for Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection “
