•數位無線電基地台(Wireless Base Station)多發射脈衝波
•如連續波(Continuous Waves)與脈衝波(Pulsed Waves)之峰值功率相同,則前者之平均功率較高,高平均功率波對其他需相容(Compatible)設備或需接近人員,能產生具破壞或傷害性的熱效應(Thermal Effect)
•如脈衝波(Pulsed Waves)與連續波(Continuous Waves)之平均功率相同,則前者之峰值功率較高;高峰值功率波對其他需相容(Compatible)設備或需接近人員,可能產生更具破壞或傷害性的燒穿或熱擊效應(Burn-Through or Thermal Shock Effect)

基地台有關輻射傷害效應、輻射安全檢查、以及輻射防護措施之三項迷思

•迷思一:僅比對安全功率密度足以保障全部輻射安全
–安全功率密度值對熱效應以外之傷害不足以提供限制條件
–安全磁通密度值較能對細胞染色體病變之傷害提供限制條件
–相對而言,電場強度及功率密度對人體較具物理效應,磁通密度較具生化效應
•迷思二:可以由所有功率密度測量值正確導出磁通密度,進而可以比對安全磁通密度值
–真正功率密度測量儀器之感測器應直接感測輻射熱效應,並轉換為功率密度值讀出,理論上分析電場與磁場個別成分困難,故由功率密度測量值無法正確還原磁通密度值
–部份高頻功率密度測量儀器之感測器或天線以感測電場強度為主,測量所得功率密度值不含磁通密度因子,故由功率密度測量值較難還原磁通密度值
–部份低頻功率密度測量儀器之感測器或天線以感測磁通密度為主,測量所得功率密度值含磁通密度因子,故由功率密度測量值還原磁通密度值可行
•迷思三:僅比對功率密度測量值,足以評估屏蔽體對電場強度暨對磁通密度之雙重隔離效果
–屏蔽體與吸收體一樣都有隔離效果
–屏蔽體對電場強度暨對磁通密度隔離效果有別,一般銅板銅網隔離電場有效,鐵板鐵網隔離隔離磁場有效,合金、鍍金、或包金材料效果折中
–不漏電不保證不漏磁,反之亦然,故為正確評估隔離屏蔽,必須同時比對安全功率密度,以及比對磁通密度

•Measure the first power density at site II-1 and derive the regarding first power
•Measure the corresponding power from directional coupler at site I, calculate the first power referring to site II-1, and record the first power difference between two measurements
•Monitor the second power density at site II-2, adjust attenuator at site I such that the second power density at site II-2 is equal to the first power density at site II-2, read the corresponding power from directional coupler at site I, and record the attenuation offset from attenuator
•The second power is equal to the first power offset by attenuation and with tolerance of that first power difference
