Mapeo electromagnético en un sector de Riobamba en la banda de frecuencia de 944 Mhz a 951Mhz, utilizando la familia virtual, el equipo Narda SRM-3000 y una tesis de grado.

Abstract

An electromagnetic mapping was performed using the frequency band 945 to 951MHz in a sector of Riobamba city. It was divided into 46 measurement nodes. Space measurements of electromagnetic radiation were collected using the NARDA SRM-3000 equipment and a wooden stand that simulates the Duke Virtual Family model. With these data, the maximum, minimum, average and standard deviation values were determined for each measurement node. The use of the Sim4Life software helped to determine the values of the specific absorption rate (SAR) for whole body and for 10 grams in order to be able to compare those values with the recommended values of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) K.52 and K.6l, which are based on the regulations of ICNIRP, and all those currently values of our country which are regulated by ARCOTEL. After collecting, processing and analyzing the data, these data were entered into an electromagnetic mapping software based on geographic information systems (GIS), which allows to visualize in a very effective way the map of Riobamba city with all the nodes of measurement and with the collected values of the spatial measurements and of the SAR in each of them, also a color map indicating the incidence of electromagnetic radiation in the zone of measurement, in this way being able to visualize which places are the ones that have more or less concentration of electromagnetic emissions and what numerical value they possess. It was determined that the SAR values obtained from the 46 measurement nodes do not exceed the established limits of the aforementioned regulations. It is recommended that the space measurements be performed according to the parameters established by the regulatory entities and that the same procedure applied to different areas of Riobamba city.
