RF fields at broadcast transmitting sites
Description
The purpose of broadcasting is to radiate information over large areas to randomly located receivers which may be mobile and use inefficient antennas. Quite high powers must therefore be radiated to provide reliable services, giving rise to RF fields which can exceed the Maximum Exposure Limits (MEL) given in AS 2772-1985 when close to the transmitting antennas. Measurements commenced in the early 60's have been expanded over the past 2 years and moved towards measuring all national broadcasting sites (over 400) and services (over 700). Field levels measured are summarised below
