Electromagnetic radiation security estimation on the residential building roof for cellular antenna

The work objective is to estimate the electromagnetic environment on the roof where a mobile system base station aerial is installed. The problem arises during maintenance, repair, and assembly operations for antenna-feeder devices. The evaluation problem for ecological assessment of the electromagnetic environment at a standard height of two meters above the roof is solved with the computational prediction method. Two strict models are used for electrodynamic simulation of energy flux density, i.e. a two ray model which describes the plane electromagnetic wave diffraction on the flat perfectly conducting roof surface, and finite models of the roof are described with the canonical problem on a wedge of infinite extent. The difference between the developed model and the known ones lies within the research possibility not only in the computational points but within a whole computational plane. In the simulation process, antenna emission characteristics can be set in a number of ways including those obtained from the radiation object specifications, as it is proposed in a well-known technique. The simulation results for energy flux density distribution in a horizontal plane within the roof space are given. Computational points are placed at the square grid nodes with the period of a quarter wavelength of the transmitter. A physical interpretation of the obtained results is given. A safety conclusion on the human presence on the roof with operating directional cel lular antenna of GSM standard is formulated
