Conclusion and future perspectives

This book presents the current and future trends in electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure assessment, measurement, limitation and mitigation for mobile and wireless communication systems. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part providing an overview of EMF exposure in terms of exposure metrics, guidelines and limits as well as various techniques and mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating EMF exposure in mobile networks. It has been established in this part that the technology used, channel and network loading conditions, and the type of service used as well as user behaviour determine EMF exposure levels over any given area.
