This peer-reviewed article proposes a Planetary Health Impact Assessment (PHIA) framework to evaluate not only direct health effects of radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) but also potential indirect impacts on human health mediated through ecosystem disruption. Using mobile telecommunication RF-EMF as a…

This exposure-assessment study proposes and validates a method to measure instantaneous RF exposure under typical base station load by generating defined data rates (low/medium/high) using iPerf and measuring channel power across services. Validation at four base stations suggests the approach is reliable across…

This conference paper proposes a method to assess combined EMF exposure from multiple simultaneous high-frequency sources using a normalized exposure ratio based on ICNIRP 2020 guidelines. It emphasizes a current gap in standardized absorbed power density (Sab) measurement above 10 GHz and proposes incident power…

This engineering/monitoring paper describes enhancements to the Serbian EMF RATEL system, which has continuously monitored RF-EMF since 2017, by adding drive test functionality to improve spatial coverage. The authors report preliminary quantitative drive test measurements and validation of the upgraded approach. The…

This engineering study describes the design and validation of a reverberation chamber intended for large-scale animal carcinogenicity research with RF EMF relevant to 4G/5G. E-field uniformity was tested under four loading scenarios, including setups with 80 Sprague-Dawley rats. The chamber achieved better than 1.36…

This paper presents a traceable experimental dosimetry method to measure absorbed power density (APD) from body-mounted wireless devices at frequencies above 10 GHz. It combines a miniaturized broadband probe, a composite skin-equivalent phantom, and reconstruction/calibration procedures, with validation using…

This exposure-assessment study compares RF-EMF exposure maps produced using a broadband meter versus a personal exposimeter and aims to correct personal exposimeter readings to match broadband-based maps. The authors report that LOS/NLOS-specific correction factors reduce discrepancies, particularly improving LOS…

This paper describes measurements and simulations to support terahertz (THz) sensing of European honey bees for environmental monitoring. It reports dielectric characterization of bee body parts across 1–500 GHz, scattering-based validation of 3D-printed bee mockups, and THz imaging demonstrating detailed anatomical…

This exposure assessment study introduces a cost-efficient add-on sensor attached to a smartphone to quantify auto-induced uplink RF-EMF transmission across 100–6000 MHz in multiple microenvironments. Activity-based surveys were conducted in seven European countries under non-user, maximum downlink, and maximum…

This translational engineering paper describes a portable RF birdcage/meander line antenna concept for repeated electromagnetic field stimulation at 64 MHz aimed at lowering amyloid-beta in Alzheimer’s disease. The abstract reports prior in vitro findings in primary human brain cultures showing reduced secreted Aβ-42…

This animal validation study tested a Mu-metal-shielded helmet system with proprietary induction sensor stimulators for non-invasive recording and stimulation of neural electromagnetic activity through porcine skulls. The authors report that EMFs penetrated the swine skull and that sensor performance remained…

This engineering study presents RTEEMF-PhoneAnts, a convolutional neural network framework to predict mobile phone antenna metrics (EIRP, TRP, and SAR) from near-field EMF distributions. Using a dataset of 7000 mobile phone models, the authors report statistical validation for predicted SAR/TRP and a validation…

This paper describes the design, calibration, and experimental validation of a low-cost tri-axial sensor for monitoring 50 Hz magnetic fields from high-voltage power lines. The sensor was calibrated on-board and in-lab against a narrowband EHP-50 benchmark and then verified in situ at two locations, with reported…

This paper presents a 3D GIS approach to model magnetic fields from overhead high-voltage power lines while accounting for terrain relief and cable catenary. The model was validated against extensive field measurements in two complex urban environments and showed good agreement with measured values, though accuracy…

This study assessed usability, feasibility, and validity of a smartphone-delivered virtual pedestrian environment by comparing it with a semi-immersive kiosk virtual environment. Among 68 adults, participants used the smartphone system without difficulty, reported no significant simulator sickness, and rated it as…

This engineering paper presents an experimentally validated wearable personal exposimeter system for RF-EMF exposure monitoring, motivated by increasing wireless applications. It uses a distributed measurement approach and integrates inertial sensors to capture activity and posture during measurements. The system is…

This study describes the design, pilot testing, and validation of a mobile phone application version of the Guatemala NEMS-S supermarket survey. In a single supermarket, the app demonstrated high interrater reliability relative to the paper version and good test-retest reliability. The app also reduced survey…

This study describes development and validation of a sham rTMS approach that combines a matched sham coil (for look/sound) with scalp electrical stimulation (for sensation). In back-to-back comparisons, TMS-naïve participants reportedly could not tell active from sham, whereas experienced participants could. The…

This Medical Physics article presents a phase-based MRI method to quantify paramagnetic contrast agent concentration by inverting susceptibility-induced magnetic field shifts, aiming to improve arterial input function (AIF) measurement in DCE-MRI. After in vitro validation, the approach was applied in vivo in 14…
