The study sought to find out the feasibility and necessity of the hearing impaired child to speak. The researchers after visiting one of the special schools in South Africa were amused to see the deaf children speaking. It is against this background that the researchers were prompted to carry out the study. A sample of twelve teachers from one special school in Zimbabwe was selected as a research study. The school head and fifteen students were also selected. A survey study was used. The research instruments used were document analysis, the questionnaires and the interview. Questionnaires were administered to twelve teachers and fifteen pupils. Face to face interview was carried out with one of the school heads. The study revealed that most teachers were not proficient in the use of the sign language so they welcomed the proposal of enhancing the deaf child to speak. Mixed sentiments were given by the deaf children. The idea of enabling the deaf child to speak was welcomed by most of the students. Some students furiously responded that they are not eager and will never bother themselves by trying to speak. The study recommended that both oral and sign language ought to be used so that the deaf child will not face communication challenges with their peers and the people at large. Teachers need to show a positive attitude and some dedication when dealing with the hearing impaired students. There is also need to have some workshops so that the teachers will learn the sign language since there is a recommendation to promote the learning of both oral and sign language. Parents for the deaf children should work hand in glove with the school to enhance their children to benefit from both ends, that is, the school and at home.

Cloud computing basically involves delivering hosted services over the Internet to store, manage, and process data, instead of using local server or a personal computer. These services are broadly divided into three categories: Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). In scientific terms, cloud computing is a synonym for distributed computing over a network which means the ability to run a program on many connected computers at the same time. Therefore it involves a large number of computers that are connected through a real-time communication network.
Online testing in RFID Memories is a memory testing mechanism, where the memory can be tested simultaneously with the system operation. Hence, it has instant error detection. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) devices based on the correct operation of their memory for accurate identification of objects and delivery of transponder’s information. This paper presents the concurrent online test scheme for RFID memories based on Memory Built in Self Test (MBIST) architecture, the Finite State Machine (FSM) of transponder access scheme, Symmetric transparent version of March C-algorithm. Online test is achieved by modifying the transponder’s operation and access protocol to make use of the waiting time that transponders waste before being accessed. The solution of this paper was described in VHDL, area and timing results are simulated in Xilinx ISE 9.2i. Results show that the solution overhead is less than 0.1 %, while the timing performance allows testing up to 32-word blocks in a single waiting slot.
Spectral depth analysis of aeromagnetic data covering latitude 9.50 – 12.00 and longitude 9.50 – 12.00, which corresponds to parts of upper Benue Trough and southern Borno Basin, northeast, Nigeria, was carried out for the purpose of investigating the sedimentary thickness beneath the subsurface. The study area was covered by 25 aeromagnetic maps. The aeromagnetic maps were digitized on a 3 km by 3 km grid and later compiled to produce a combined aeromagnetic data file for the area. The 3 km spacing interval imposed a Nyquist frequency of 0.167 km-1 while the data file comprised 7921 data points. The polynomial fitting method was applied in the regional–residual separation. The residual map was later sub-divided into 41 spectral sections. The result of the study shows that the first layer depth was estimated to have ranged from 0.268 km to about 1.08 km while the second layer depth was estimated to have ranged from 2.06 km to about 3.35 km. The highest sedimentary thickness of 3.35 km was found at the northern part of the area and corresponds to areas around Damaturu and Bulkachuwa. These areas may be subjected for further geophysical method like seismic reflection/refraction, so as to ascertain its hydrocarbon potential.

Global climate change has far-reaching effects on natural ecosystem and socio-economic system, and it is a hot issue that the governments and the scientific community as well as the general public pay attention to today. Meanwhile, climate change has strong regional characteristics. In the global context of climate warming, the climate change trends and intensity is not entirely consistent. Therefore, strengthening small regional climate change research plays an extremely important role on local agricultural production, livelihood and disaster prevention. On the basis of the monthly average temperature series in Guyuan meteorological station from 1957 to 2011, the temperature trends were analyzed with Mann-Kendall test and Pettitt jump test. The result with linear regression analysis showed that the annual average temperature in Guyuan City is in an increasing trend, and the average increase rate is 0.3071℃/10a. The annual highest temperature, the annual lowest temperature, and the annual average temperature in Guyuan City showed an upward trend with Mann-Kendall test. The biggest change is the annual lowest temperature, and the change rate is 0.60 ℃/10a, and then is the annual average temperature and annual highest temperature. Pettitt jump test results showed that the annual lowest temperature in Guyuan City changed in the earliest year before 1984. The annual average temperature and annual highest temperature changed nearly the year of 1993. Multiple regression analysis showed that changes of temperature in Guyuan City mainly occurred after the 1980s, and there is a significant upward trend into the 21st, which is in accordance with Pettitt jump test results.
Currently, in both market and the academic communities have required applications based on image and video processing with several real-time constraints. On the other hand, detection of moving objects is a very important task in mobile robotics and surveillance applications. In order to achieve this, we are using a alternative means for real time motion detection systems. This paper proposes hardware architecture for motion detection based on the background subtraction algorithm, which is implemented on FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). For achieving this, the following steps are executed: (a) a background image (in gray-level format) is stored in an external SRAM memory, (b) a low-pass filter is applied to both the stored and current images, (c) a subtraction operation between both images is obtained, and (d) a morphological filter is applied over the resulting image. Afterward, the gravity center of the object is calculated and sent to a PC (via RS-232 interface).
Renal diseases may be discovered accidentally during routine urinalysis. This study was done to find out the significance of urinalysis and study the magnitude of abnormal urinalysis in healthy adults with no symptoms of renal disease. In our set up routine urine analysis should be performed in all subjects to identify the presence of unrecognized renal disease which may benefit from simple therapeutic measures. Because of simplicity, routine urine analysis is the best way in early detection of most frequent conditions like proteinuria, haematuria, pyuria and glycosuria. This is useful in selecting asymptomatic patients with renal disease who may benefit from early treatment or who requires long term follow up. Material and Methods: Healthy subjects between age group of 20 and 55 years of age were screened for routine urine analysis in rural health area by conducting health camp periodically during from May 2012 to April 2013. A total of 1000 fresh morning samples of urine of the subjects attending routine health check up were collected and analyzed by Dipstick method with the help of pathology and health personnel staff. Results: There were 650 males and 350 females. The age ranged from 20 to 55 years. We found urine abnormalities in total 19.7% cases. Proteinuria was present in 2.6% (26 subjects), hematuria in 5.2% (52 subjects), pyuria in 9.9% (99 subjects) and glycosuria in 2% (20 subjects). The study concludes that in our setup routine urine analysis should be performed in all healthy subjects to identify the presence of unrecognized renal diseases which may benefit from simple therapeutic measures. The urinalysis is a frequently used tool in primary care, and abnormal finding is a step to moniter and evaluation of the cause of the disease.
The increased potential of the ontologies to reduce the human interference has wide range of applications. This paper identifies requirements for an ontology development platform to innovate artificially intelligent web. To facilitate this process, RDF and OWL have been developed as standard formats for the sharing and integration of data and knowledge. The knowledge in the form of rich conceptual schemas called ontologies. Based on the framework, an architectural paradigm is put forward in view of ontology engineering and development of ontology applications and a development portal designed to support ontology engineering, content authoring and application development with a view to maximal scalability in size and complexity of semantic knowledge and flexible reuse of ontology models and ontology application processes in a distributed and collaborative engineering environment.
The influence of sintering temperature on the thermal conductivity of rice husk ash refractory is examined in this research. Cylindrical disk made from RHA whose chemical composition measured by XRF were sintered in the temperature range of 1000℃-1400℃. the crystalline phase transformation studied by XRD. The thermal conductivity of these Rice Husk Ash refractory was determined using the hot flux method and values calculated using Fourier’s equation for steady state heat conduction. Porosity and density test were also carried out Result showed that there was an increase in apparent density and conductivity with increasing sintering temperature though the values are still low and satisfactory for most insulation applications. Porosity of rice husk ash refractory decreases with increasing sintering temperature therefore the gains of higher strength from higher sintering temperature are not negated.
In our project, we propose a novel architecture which generates the test patterns with reduced switching activities. LP-TPG (Test pattern Generator) structure consists of modified low power linear feedback shift register (LP-LFSR), m-bit counter; gray counter, NOR-gate structure and XOR-array. The m-bit counter is initialized with Zeros and which generates 2m test patterns in sequence. The m-bit counter and gray code generator are controlled by common clock signal [CLK]. The output of m-bit counter is applied as input to gray code generator and NOR-gate structure. When all the bits of counter output are Zero, the NOR-gate output is one. Only when the NOR-gate output is one, the clock signal is applied to activate the LP-LFSR which generates the next seed. The seed generated from LP-LFSR is Exclusive–OR ed with the data generated from gray code generator. The patterns generated from the Exclusive–OR array are the final output patterns. The proposed architecture is simulated using Modelsim and synthesized using Xilinx ISE 13.2 and it will be implemented on XC3S500e Spartan 3E FPGA board for hardware implementation and testing. The Xilinx Chip scope tool will be used to test the FPGA inside results while the logic running on FPGA.

Role of electromagnetic Radiation in Remote SensingNzar Braim
Role of electromagnetic Radiation in Remote Sensing
It should be clear by now that the electromagnetic waves are originator and
carrier of information in Earth observation. The information content of the products delivered by a given type of sensor is essentially related to the parameters, mainly frequency (or wavelength) and polarization, characterizing the observing system, including the geometry at which data are acquired. Therefore, the specifications of an EO system, which include the type of sensor, the band of operation, the observation angle, etc.
Amplitude and phase modulation for ultrasonic wireless communicationijwmn
Short range wireless communications have been used more and more frequently in our life. But the
electromagnetic fields waves also have some disadvantages. One of these disadvantages is health problems.
Many studies shows the electromagnetic field waves using for communication may damage our health. And
in most hospitals, they also have bans on the use of mobile phones and wide area networks because of
Electromagnetic Interference. So this paper studied the use of ultrasound for wireless communication in
air, instead of using electromagnetic field wave. In order to find an advisable modulation method for
ultrasound wireless communication, Amplitude modulation method and Phased modulation method has
been test.

"Heart failure is a typical clinical accompanied by symptoms syndrome (e.g. shortness of breath, ankle swelling and fatigue) that lead to structural or functional abnormalities of the heart (e.g. high venous pressure, pulmonary edema and peripheral edema).
In recent years, the significant role of B-type natriuretic peptide has been revealed in the pathogenesis of heart disease and the use of the drug sacubitril/valsartan has started. It has a positive effect on the regulation of the level of B-type natriuretic peptide in the body. It is obviously seen from the the world literature that natriuretic peptides play an important role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. For this reason, many studies suggest that the importance of natriuretic peptides in the diagnosis and treatment of heart failure is recommended.
Due to this, we tried to investigate the effects of a comprehensive medication therapy with a combination of sacubitril/valsartan in the patients with chronic heart failure."

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. Introduction
Developments in technology and industry have facilitated
human Life. However, environmental pollution has occurred
as a result of these developments and is causing a threat to
human and animal lives.
It should be expected that both play important roles in the
functional activities of organisms. Before the 1990’s
radiofrequencies were mainly from a few radio and
television transmitters, located in remote areas and very high
places. Since the introduction of wireless telecommunication
in th1990’stherollout of phone networks has caused a
massive increase in electromagnetic pollution in cities and
the countryside. Multiple sources of mobile communication
result in chronic exposure of a significant part of the wildlife
(and man) to microwaves at non-thermal levels [4].
In recent years, wildlife has been chronically exposed to
microwaves and RFR (Radiofrequency radiation) signals
from various sources, including GSM and UMTS/3G
wireless phones and base stations, WLAN (Wireless Local
Area Networks), WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Networks
such as Bluetooth), and DECT (Digital Enhanced (former
European) Cordless Telecommunications) that are erected
indiscriminately without studies of environmental impact
measuring long-term effects.
There are other sources such as radio stations and television,
stations high-pressure, microwave ovens, all kinds of
electronic devices and telephones. All of these sources are
industrial but represented in the natural radiation emitted by
earth quakes volcanic eruptions, explosions, such as gamma-
ray And UV emitted by the sun.
1.1 Types of Electromagnetic Waves
1.1.1 Radio Waves
Radio waves are the lowest-frequency waves in the EM
spectrum. Radio waves can be used to carry other signals to
receivers that subsequently translate these signals into usable
information. Many objects, both natural and man-made, emit
radio waves. Anything that emits heat emits radiation across
the entire spectrum, but in different amounts. Stars, planets
and other cosmic bodies emit radio waves. Radio and
television stations and cell phone companies all produce radio
waves that carry signals to be received by the antennae in
your television, radio or cell phone.
1.1.2 Microwaves
Microwaves are the second-lowest frequency waves in the
EM spectrum. Whereas radio waves can be up to a mile in
length, microwaves measure from a few centimeters up to a
foot. Due to their higher frequency, microwaves can carry
information through obstacles that interfere with radio waves
such as clouds, smoke and rain. Microwaves are used for
radar, landline phone calls and the transmission of computer
data. Microwave remnants of the "Big Bang" radiate from all
directions throughout the universe.
1.1.3 Infrared Waves
Infrared waves are in the lower-middle range of frequencies
in the EM spectrum, between microwaves and visible light.
The size of infrared waves ranges from a few millimeters
down to microscopic lengths. The longer-wavelength infrared
waves produce heat and include radiation emitted by fire, the
sun and other heat-producing objects; shorter-wavelength
infrared rays do not produce much heat and are used in
remote controls and imaging technologies.
1.1.4 Visible Light Rays
Visible light waves are radiation that you can see with your
naked eye. The different frequencies of visible light are
experienced by people as the colors of the rainbow. The
frequencies move from the lower wavelengths, detected as
reds, up to the higher visible wavelengths, detected as violet
hues. The most noticeable natural source of visible light is, of
course, the sun. Objects are perceived as different colors
based on which wavelengths of light an object absorbs and
which it reflects.
1.1.5 Ultraviolet Waves
Ultraviolet waves have even shorter wavelengths than visible
light. UV waves are the cause of sunburn and can cause
cancer in living organisms. High-temperature processes emit
UV rays; these can be detected throughout the universe from
every star in the sky. Detecting UV waves assists
astronomers, for example, in learning about the structure of
galaxies.

1.1.6 X-ray Waves
X-rays are extremely high-energy waves with wavelengths
between 0.03 and 3 nanometers -- not much longer than an
atom. X-rays are emitted by sources producing very high
temperatures like the sun's corona, which is much hotter
than the surface of the sun. Natural sources of x-rays include
enormously energetic cosmic phenomena such as pulsars,
supernovae and black holes. X-rays are commonly used in
imaging technology to view bone structures within the body.
1.1.7 Gamma Rays
Gamma waves are the highest-frequency EM waves, and are
emitted by only the most energetic cosmic objects such
pulsars, neutron stars, supernova and black holes. Terrestrial
sources include lightning, nuclear explosions and radioactive
decay. Gamma wave wavelengths are measured on the
subatomic level and can actually pass through the empty
space within an atom. Gamma rays can destroy living cells;
fortunately, the Earth's atmosphere absorbs any gamma rays
that reach the planet.
1.2 Types and Limitations of Electromagnetic Radiation
There are basically two types of electromagnetic radiation
1.2.1 Ionizing
This has sufficient energy to strip away electrons from
atoms (creating two charged ions) or to break some chemical
bonds such as X-ray, Gama ray, and Beta ray.
1.2.2 non-ionizing
Refers to any type of electromagnetic radiation that does not
carry enough energy per quantum to ionize atoms or
molecules that is, to completely remove an electron from an
atom or molecule. As the frequency of the signal increases
then the more energy it has, hence the wave may be in the
non-ionizing or ionizing range as shown in Fig.1
Figure 1: the electromagnetic spectrum showing the two
types of electromagnetic radiation
1.3 Sources of Electromagnetic Pollution
Electromagnetic pollution is the result of electromagnetic
excess of the environmental electromagnetic background that
the electromagnetic waves radiated from many different
technological products:
Power Lines
A noticeable source of extremely low frequency radiation is
the high voltage electrical transmission lines, which in some
instances produce such high losses that they bend the earth's
ionosphere. Power lines are dangerous because they are
constantly losing energy. Because you can't see electricity,
and you don't have a detector, you can't see it oozing, but it is.
Satellite Dishes
Another case of electromagnetic pollution is satellite dishes.
Main or secondary power lines in the vicinity may actually be
amplified by the satellite dish. If antennas of satellite dishes
are pointing at a certain angle, even partially towards a power
transmission line, they will actually absorb and focus its
frequency, and once it is captured, it will travel vertically
above or below the dish.
Cellular Telephones
Portable and car telephone systems also amplify surrounding
fields. Do not use these telephones unless you really have to.
Some people have a tendency to put a whole day through on
this device and can suffer detrimental effects such as loss of
concentration and memory. So be very careful with them.

Radar Sites
Never stay near a radar site even when it is off. Radar sites
augment all kinds of electromagnetic fields. Radar is a
serious problem especially when the radar frequencies are
changed, but are still in the same frequency range. That
sudden change can be too much for the body and may
trigger a whole series of problems.
Video Display Terminals
In a video display terminal, there are various sources of
problems; however, the major problem is the fly back
transformer. It can produce stronger fields than if you are
near a substation. And that's a very intense field, 50,000
volts or more per meter. If you keep a distance of about 70
cm away from the modern types and if there are no other
VDT's around, that should be o.k., but you should not be in
the rear of a VDT. That is the worst place.
Pollution In The Average Home
In our homes and offices, all of our electrical appliances
produce not only electrical but also magnetic fields, even
when they are "off". For example, a television set will still
produce quite strong fields even when it is off, as long as it
is plugged into the electric supply. The same is true of
lamps, typewriters, photocopiers, fluorescent light fixtures,
video display systems, telephones, microwave ovens ,
extension cords and unused electric wires inside walls.
And strongest radiation comes from mobile phones, wireless
phones, monitors, photocopiers, microwave ovens and
hairdryers. We don't feel this electromagnetic radiation, but
we may feel its effects. we should be aware, that prolonged
exposure to electromagnetic radiation can cause: headaches
,stress and sexual health ,Sterility Lack of energy ,inability
to concentrate ,Irritability Increased fatigue ,Immune system
disorders.
1.4 Radio and Micro waves
Radio and Microwave wave radiation may be categorized as
continuous waves (e.g., communications equipment),
intermittent (microwave ovens, medical equipment, and
radio frequency equipment), or pulsed mode (radar systems).
It extends between few KHz to GHz in the electromagnetic
radiation scheme.
There are many sources of RF/MW radiation and they are
widely used in many applications, these are traffic radar
devises, RF heaters and sealers, radio transmission Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (MRI), computer monitors, medical
diathermy and wireless communications including cellular
phones and their base-stations.
2. Mobile Telephone System
Mobile telephony is based on two way radio communication
between portable handset and nearest base-station. The
mobile telephone base stations ( MTBS) are normally
installed on the rooftop of high-rise buildings in urban areas
and often on towers for coverage in rural areas. The height
of the stations above the ground varies according to
locations. Generally they are installed at the height of 15 to
50 meters from the ground for the rooftop and 40 to 100
meters in the case of tower. Each MTBS has a Maximum
capacity in term of number of users that it can handle at any
one time and this can easily lead to call congestion in some
parts of urban areas. A common approach adopted by service
providers to overcome this problem is by providing more
MTBS in the affected areas.
Such continuous increase in number of MTBSs erected has
inevitably triggered concern among members of the public
living around the stations on the possibility of health effect
caused by the radiation produced by such facilities. The early
mobile telephony systems such as NMT, Total Access
Communication System (TACS), and Advance Mobile Phone
System (AMPS), use analog telephony while newer systems
such as GSM (global system for mobile communication) use
digital technology.
3. Methodology
In this paper, the study shows a comparison between the
number of published scientific papers that explain
electromagnetic pollution from mobile stations in each of the
city of Khartoum, Ankara, Malaysia and Gaza all of which
illustrate the radiation output form GSM system operates in
either the 900 MHz or 1800 MHz band.
In Khartoum city the results were taken from some towers
were selected and some places around these towers were
chosen, the power density was measured at many points at
different distance. In Ankara city the measurement of EM
Pollution study it is assumed that only far field conditions
exist for the cellular (GSM900 and GSM1800), TV and radio
transmitters since these installations are most of the time
mounted on high towers or hills. In Malaysia country Safety
assessments were made based on actual measurements carried
out at the site of the mobile telephone base stations (MTBS)
On-site measurements were done using special instruments
suitable for the condition of the MTBS system being
assessed. Measurement locations around the MTBS were
identified during site visits based on situations that were
foreseen as causing significant potential radiation exposure to
the general public and workers. In Gaza city the paper discuss
Electric field signals from mobile telephone base stations and
all other significant signals from such sources as TV and FM
radio were measured along the major roads in Gaza. The
measurements were taken in three different days around
noontime.

for each paper for pervious mentions. In paper worked in
Khartoum Power density measured for each base-station from
different distances Data was also given as percent of the
nominated standard (0.57 mW/cm2) although we believe that
the national standards of China and Hungary (0.001
mW/cm2) are the best. Power density versus distance was
presented for two base-stations only as examples (see Fig
(2&3)) .
For each base-station the distance of measurements ranged
between zero and 350m, although the accepted value for the
distance range in literature is between 50 and 300m. The

recorded values of power density were in general measured
in this range.
In paper worked in Gaza it was explained the RF EME
exposure levels from a typical JAWAL tower The first
experiment was to monitor closely a typical GSM tower The
selected one was on the Door building rooftop which is
close to the researcher’s residence home. The measuring
device was mounted at a distance one meter from one of the
sector antennas1. The 24 hour measurements of the power
density are illustrated in (Figure 4) The variation of the
power density along the time is due to the variation of the
number of active time slots.
And the second experiment The considerations in this
subsection are restricted to the fields produced by GSM
mobile phones. The maximum powers that 900 MHz GSM
mobile phones are permitted to transmit by the present
standards are 2W.
The level of radiation at call setup is much larger than that
during conversation. During this phase the phone starts by
checking all control channels in order to determine the
substation with the strongest signal and hence will give the
best connection. Then the phone sends the origination
message which is a very short message (about 0.25 second).
After the cellular service provider verifies that caller is
valid, the base station sends a channel assignment message
to the phone. This message informs the phone on which
channel the conversation will take place. Consequently, the
phone turns to the assigned channel and begins the call. At
this step, the ring back signal or busy signal is heard. Both
of these are transmitted by the base station as an audio signal
just like the voice of the person on the destination.
An experiment is performed to highlight the variation of the
radiation levels during the call progress. The electric field at
a point 1 cm from a typical phone is measured. The result is
shown in( Figure 5).in paper worked in malisya Explained
the radiation emitted form MTBS These results are grouped
according to locations of the MTBS i.e. on the rooftop and
on tower. They are the averaged readings of the
measurements made at all of the identified measurement
locations around the MTBS. Measurement locations on the
rooftop are basically within short distances to the MTBS.
Since the radiation levels drop very significantly with
distance, the radiation levels present here are, therefore,
understandably higher than those on the ground because of
shorter distances involved. The averaged radiation levels
(broadband) present here were found to vary between 2.5
V/m and 18.8 V/m, which were 5.5% and 41% of the public
limit respectively (see Figure 7). The actual levels varied
from as low as 0.23 V/m to the highest of 61.3 V/m, which
was taken way above the head at close distance to the center
of the radiation beam.
The rooftop where the MTBS is located is normally a
restricted area and accessible only to the employees and not
the general public. Slightly higher radiation levels observed
here are, therefore, not going to cause any problem to
members of the public. These radiation levels are also
acceptable to workers since they are allowed by Malaysian
Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC)
recommended exposure limits to receive higher levels of
radiation than members of the public. The radiation levels
inside the buildings are generally lower than outside because
building materials have the capability to absorb a fraction of
the radiation transmitted by MTBS (see Figure 6). The
averaged radiation levels, which varied between 2.1 V/m and
4.7 V/m, were more or less the same as those observed
outside the buildings. These radiation levels measured inside
the buildings were suspected to have been interfered with
radiation produced by other radiofrequency and microwave
sources present in the buildings and backscattering of the
incoming external radiofrequency and microwave radiation
by walls, floor and ceiling of the rooms where measurements
were made. Lower radiation levels recorded from
measurements made on the ground around the MTBS on
tower could also be due to less contribution from the
background radiation present in the environment as most of
these MTBS sites were located outside the city areas where
the presence of other radiofrequency and microwave sources
are insignificant. There were not many data managed to be
gathered for the assessment of the radiation levels inside
buildings around the MTBS on tower. The main reason was
because towers are mainly located outside city areas where
there are not many buildings present in immediate vicinity of
their sites. As described earlier, the radiation levels are
expected to be lower than outside because of absorption by
building materials. However, this was not observed during the
assessments due to similar reason given above( see Figure7)

source In this EM pollution measurement study; it is assumed
that only far field conditions exist for the cellular (GSM900
and GSM1800), TV and radio transmitters since these
installations are most of the time mounted on high towers or
hills. It is essential to measure the combined field levels for
all different signal sources in the environment. As shown in
Table 1, total pollution value was re-corded average 3.658
V/m and its standard deviation was 0.538 according to the 68
measurement results taken from various locations in the city
centre. GSM1800 av-erage pollution value was calculated
1.276 V/m while GSM900 average pollution value was 0.102
V/m.

5. Conclusion
Radiation emitted from cell phone towers are actually two
types: microwave and radio waves which are non-ionizing
radiation, but its effects in the long run. In this paper
compares the four of scientific papers in four different
countries dealt with all electromagnetic pollution emitted
from cellular phone base stations. I worked all previous
securities in the comparison between the percentage of
electromagnetic pollution emitted in the surrounding areas
communications towers and global standards for safety of
electromagnetic pollutants. In Sudan, the proportion of high
electromagnetic pollution compared to global standards for
non-observance by the telecommunications companies of
the global system and the paper concluded for some
recommendations, including the removal of some base
stations of the public areas and kindergartens. In Gaza have
been working on the levels of electromagnetic radiation
emitted by communications towers generally, but they
focused on road traffic because they open areas and paper
concluded that there are some rules you have to give
attention and that of their proximity to residential buildings,
which are on the road in traffic must be monitored
alongtoday and for the most suitable proportion of radiation
and thus control.
In Malaysia results were a comparison between the radiation
emitted by the ground base stations and base stations on
rooftops and the result was that the ground stations are less
dangerous than the stations on rooftops as paper also
concluded that the level of radioactive contamination
Malaysia low below the safety line, and because MCMC
Organization of the Malaysian authorities determine the
level of security.
Turkey's study was to calculate the electromagnetic radiation
in some areas in the Turkish capital Ankara and the study
concluded that the levels of electromagnetic radiation higher
than their safety and in accordance with international
standards, where the average radiation obtained from the
study 3.658 V/M while global standards 0.538 V/M and that
of All electromagnetic effects. In the communications towers
GSM 1800 average radiation was 1.276 V/M while basic
criteria0 .58 V/M towers of the GSM 900 average radiation
0.102 V/M while basic criteria 0.03 V/M. We concluded from
this study scientific papers prior to the communications
towers all radiate microwave and other radio and are waves in
nature have an impact on human health and therefore should
all telecommunications companies into account international
standards and governments must appoint organizations to
work in the recruitment of calibrator required health.
