Hazards from cell phones and cell towers gk kem hospitalNeha Kumar
Presentation at KEM Hospital on 20th September 2010 for medical doctors.
We have explained the radiation pattern of Cell tower antenna, main beam and minor beam of an antenna, who are at more danger, radiation norms adopted in different countries, calculations for amount of radiation the body may be exposed to with current radiation norms, epidemiological symptoms observed with proximity to towers, biological effects of these radiations. In particular its affect on children and pregnant women, health problems reported from cell tower radiation and other EMF sources- case studies, its impact on the environment - birds, animals, bees, plants etc.
Prof Girish Kumar from IIT Bomaby talked about the engineering aspect of cell tower antennae and I presented the biological effects on humans, animals and mentioned a few case studies.
There are several hundreds of publications which show a positive link between cell phone/ cell tower radiation and its association with illness observed in people. Several thousands of cases have been reported worldwide. All this calls for immediate precautionary actions to be taken before it gets too late.
MOBILE PHONE & MOBILE TOWER RADIATION HAZARDS Neha Kumar
Presentation by Prof. Girish Kumar -
Council for Fair Business Practices (CFBP) organized a talk on "MOBILE PHONE & TOWER RADIATION" on Friday 24th June, 2011 at 06.00 p.m at the Hall of Indian Merchants Chamber, Churchgate, Mumbai 400 020.
Good developments seem to be taking place post WHO excepts health problems. First time a person from the industry (Former Regional Director, West and South Operations, Indus Towers Ltd.) excepted that radiation from mobile towers lead to health problems at the event.
People were keen to look for solutions for the problem.
Radiation from Mobile Tower - Health Hazard, Norms, Cases Neha Kumar
Cell Tower Radiation Report- sent to Secretary DOT (Department of Telecommunications)
-By Prof. Girish Kumar, IIT Bombay.
Cell Tower Radiation Report prepared after going through 100's of research papers and interacting with several people/sufferers.
Section 7 is on Possible Solutions to reduce the ill effects of cell tower radiation.
Several health effects have been reported from Cell Tower radiation much below the radiation norms adopted by most countries.
Common problems that occur among below living near and below cell towers are Sleep Disturbance, concentration problem, memory loss, heart palpitations, etc. The radiations can also aggravate / lead to Alzheimer's and Parkin's disease.
Children are more prone to these radiations as their skulls are thinner and still developing. Studies by Dr. Om Gandhi show that radiation penetration in the head of an adult while using a mobile phone is 25%, in a 10 year old it is 50% and in a 5-year old it is 75%. Also pregnant women and older people are more susceptible to radiations.
All these health effects have been observed at levels much below the ICNIRP and FCC guidelines adopted by many countries.
Similar health effects have been observed in people in Germany, Israel, Sweden, Spain, UK, France etc.
Also lots of cancer cases have been reported among people living within 300 to 400 meter distance from the tower.
In a country like India where the population is very dense, achieving this is very difficult, hence it all the more calls for lower radiation norms.
At the end some case studies have been reported. These are only a few examples. The damage which has already occurred to the human race including environment, plants, animals, birds bees etc is phenomenal.
According to Australian Health Research Institute, if this trend continues, by 2020 - "2 Billion People will suffer from cell phone cancer". Even if 1% comes true, it will have devastating consequences to so many of us!!
All this calls for immediate need to adopt strict and lower radiation norms.
This presentation gives an insight to effects of microwave radiation from cell phone towers around us. The impact of such towers on animals, plants & humans is discussed and some simple solutions are also presented.
These slides will give you certain level of understanding about the Cell-Phone/Tower Radiation Hazards, which is a major concern due to boom in the number of cell phones and telecommunication towers
Mobile tower radiation and its impact on environmentNishat Fatima
Mobile tower usually emit radiation in environment and are very dangerous for living beings. The antennas contained in mobile phones, including smartphones, emit radio frequency (RF) radiation (non-ionizing "radio waves" such as microwaves); the parts of the head or body nearest to the antenna can absorb this energy and convert it to heat.
Cause impact on Human Brain, Effect on Plants, Impacts on Bio-System and Ecosystem.
certanily we can not today dispense with mobile phones where they have became part of our lives each person now have mobile phone as result it is quick way to connect with other ,with this technological development must not forget that the most important factor ,it is health
Biological Effects Of Cell Tower Radiation On Human BodyNeha Kumar
Conference Paper Presentation- 'Biological effects of Cell Tower Radiation' - presented by me and Prof Girish Kumar at International Symposium on Microwave and Optical Technology (ISMOT 2009).
Cell Tower radiation has become of extreme concern as we are exposed to them 24x7 and one cannot do much if the tower antenna is mounted right on top of your home/school/office building etc. In India, currently (2009) there are about 3.75 lakh cell towers installed and the numbers are expected to rise to 4.25 lakh towers by 2010. Radiation level measurements were carried out at various locations and the levels were found to be far above the recommended values. Common complains like Sleep disruption, Headache, Depression, Concentration, Memory loss, behavior, discomfort, irritability, nausea, dizziness, appetite loss, muscle spasms, numbness, tingling, altered reflexes,seizures, paralysis, psychosis, stroke- all related to changes in the electrical activity of the brain have been on a rise. Similarly increased cases of Alzheimer’s , Parkinson's disease,infertility, child leukemia, brain tumor cases have been associated with the continuously emitting cell tower radiation. On reviewing several epidemiological and experimental studies on harmful effects of Cell Tower Radiation on health of human and animals, we recommend safe radiation levels up to 50 μW/m2 , with a upper limit as 100 μW/m2. Towards the end, details of "Radiation Shield" -instrument designed to absorb radiation between frequency 800 to 4000 MHz have been given.
An overview of the rapidly rising levels of electro magnetic frequencies in city areas, the dangers this poses to human health, the disproportionally high levels of EMF allowed in Australia, the USA and Canada compared to other European countries and strategies to reduce your exposure. By Kerrie Gleeson.
Electronic devices we use every day, have not been around very long. For example, although the cell phone has grown over the past twenty years, it is only recently that they have become pervasive. Everyone now own one. As a result, it is only now that we are beginning to understand what the long-term health effects of low levels of Electromagnetic Radiation (EMF) emitted from these electronic devices.
The growing body of scientific research indicates that electronic emissions do have an effect on human biology. There are health risks linked to exposure, and we should expect more studies designed to improve our understanding.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. Electromagnetic Radiations
Radiation emitted from Cell Phones, Cell
phone towers, Wi-Fi, TV and FM towers,
microwave ovens, etc. are called
Electromagnetic radiations (EMR).
EMR causes significant health hazards
(biological effects) on human, animals,
birds, plants and environment.

5. MICROWAVE OVENS
Microwave radiation effects are classified as:
•Thermal
•Non-thermal
The current exposure safety standards are
mainly based on the thermal effects, which
are inadequate.
Non-thermal effects are several times more
harmful than thermal effects.
6. WI-FI RADIATIONS
•
Wireless Internet routers or Wi-Fi modems use dangerous electromagnetic
radiation to send their signals to your computer through walls.
•
If you have a wireless Internet router set up in your home or office (or
WiMax, Blue Tooth, Air-Port Extreme, Air-Port Express, Netgear, D-Link,
Belkin, Linksys and other wireless network devices) you are receiving
massive EMF exposure, and living or working in a dangerous soup of
radiation.
Duration is a Factor in Wi-Fi Health Dangers:
Most wi fi heath damage comes from cable modems and DSL routers
don’t get turned off at night: they stay on. connecting your machines to the
internet whether you’re surfing or not…and flooding your space with EMFs 24/7.
7. RADIATIONS FROM TV & FM
• CRTs put an picture on the screen by shooting
electrons at the CRT face and apparently this
caused a tiny amount of radiation.
• However, most people do not even have a CRT
based TV anymore and LCDs work totally
differently and there is no radiation of any type.
Even if you have a CRT, just turn it off. Problem
solved.
8. Restrction to Tower
•
For the past few months ago, apart from the scams,
what’s also making news is the issue of mobile phone
tower radiation. Recently new radiation norms were
adopted by India and the Department of Tele
communication (DoT) had set September 1 as the
deadline for the telecom operators to adhere to them.
•
As per the new norms, the operators were mandated
to reduce the radiation levels by 1/10th of the current
levels, thus making it 0.9 watt/m2. Furthermore, it was
announced that operators who are found flouting these
rules would be heavily penalised.
9. Vulnerabilities of EMR
• All of us know that we are not allowed to operate
Mobile Phones in an aircraft because of the reason
of interference of the Radiating RF with the Onboard
Systems of the aircraft.
• It is very unfortunate that same analogy is not
applied to the living beings although everybody is
vulnerable to this continuous RF Radiations. All of us
vulnerable to the ill effects of RF EMR but following
are more vulnerable as per the existing scientific
studies.
10. Risk to Pregnant Women
• A pregnant woman and the fetus both are
vulnerable because of the fact that these RF
Radiations continuously react with the
developing embryo, increasing cells, because of
thermal heat also.
• When the pregnant ladies either use Mobile
Phone or when illuminated with RF Radiations,
the developing child can become affected, the
developmental mall formation may occur.
12. Radiation Pattern of a Cell Tower
Antenna
People living within 50 to 300 meter radius are in
the high radiation zone (dark blue) and are more
prone to ill-effects of electromagnetic radiation
13. EXPERIMENT: Radiation level measurements near
several Cell Tower sites
50m
Measured Power
-20 to -30 dBm
(in dBm)
For each frequency bands
100m
-30 to -50 dBm
14. Now days in most of the places the towers are
constructed over upon the building
Peoples accepting to construct the towers on
there roofs because of rent given by companies.
But they were no aware of dangerous of
radiations and the health problems occurred by
that.
Bedroom or rooms placed at equal height of
tower will face more radiations.
More than adults children's are affected by
highly.
15. • Radiation consists of several types of
subatomic particles, principally those
called gamma rays, neutrons, electrons,
and alpha particles, that shoot through
space at very high speeds, something like
100,000 miles per second.
• They can easily penetrate deep inside the
human body, damaging some of the
biological cells of which the body is
composed. This damage can cause a fatal
cancer to develop, or if it occurs in
reproductive cells, it can cause genetic
defects in later generations of offspring.
16. The negative impact of mobile towers
on birds, bees, humans, wildlife and
plants. The experts even cited an
international study that pinpointed cell
phone towers as a potential cause in the
decline of animal populations.
They went on to say that there was an
urgent need to focus more scientific
attention on the subject before it was too
late.
India has 7,36,654 Mobile Towers
17. Most common problems
Cognitive functions -Concentration, memory, behavior, etc
Epidemiological studies - Sleep disruption, Headache ,
Depression, discomfort, irritability, nausea, dizziness, appetite loss,
muscle spasms, numbness, tingling, altered reflexes
Subjects reported buzzing in the head, palpitations of the heart,
light-headedness, heat, visual disorders, cardiovascular problems,
respiratory problems, nervousness, agitation. More severe reactions
include seizures, paralysis, psychosis and stroke.
18. Do mobile phones harm brain
tissues and cause cancer?
There is an argument that mobile phone
causes change in the structure of
chemicals of cells. Also, they are accused
of causing cancer. The radiation from the
mobile phones has been villain zed by
those who warn that the excess usage of
mobile phones can damage brain cells.
