Electromagnetic Radiation Reduction from Ultra Dense Network Using 5G Mobile Phone in a Coordinated Multipoint Environment

Technological advancement gave birth to Ultra-Dense Networks whereby there is massive deployment of micro base stations within and around the coverage area of macro base station or at the edge of the cell in order to increase the signal strength and network throughput. This leads to very high traffic density in densely populated area especially in crowded city and hotspot areas. However, Coordinated Multi-Point environment is based on transmission and/or reception at multiple separated sites to actively manage the interference for the users, with a particular emphasis on cell-edge users. This exposed many users to too much dose of electromagnetic radiation absorbed and also increased the general population exposure to different health hazards emanated from transceiver’s electromagnetic radiation. Therefore, electromagnetic radiation reduction becomes one of the major concerns to secure the future life of mobile network users especially in an ultra-dense network area. One of the major equipment radiating electromagnetic radiation is mobile transceiver and is commonly used by both literate and illiterate, young and old, in the local, national and international levels. Base on this, Radio Frequency meter was used in measuring the radiation levels from different mobile transceiver. During call seeking, the electromagnetic radiation from transmitting mobile phones is very high while the radiation from the receiving mobile phone is very low but the radiation levels are the same for both transmitting and receiving mobile phones during call entablement and call conversation. This is essential for general-public safety and effective protection from health hazard associated with radiation exposures.
