The ITU Asia Pacific Centre of Excellence face to face training on “Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields”, was successfully conducted from 3th December – 5th December 2019 at KSL Resort, Johor Bahru, Malaysia. The training workshop was organised by the Wireless Communication Centre, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Malaysia. The training was attended by 13 registered participants from regulator, industry and government agency.
13 participants from various industries, universities and government agency completed the programmed.
Training Course Structure
Wireless devices consist of antenna that emits electromagnetic wave, which is exposed to the user’s body. This exposure to human raises concerns on the adverse health effect. Thus, it is important to understand the effect to human due to this exposure and related policies. The training course is designed;
- To equip participants with an understanding of the effect of radio frequency electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure to human and its relation to body tissue dielectric parameters and frequency;
- To equip participants with an understanding of related policies on human exposure to EMF;
- To build knowledge to participants with the recent studies on the effect of EMF exposure to human;
- To expose participants on the public education related to EMF exposure
