This year there was an auction of the mobile radio licenses of the new 5G network in Germany. Many companies are trying to get hold of these in order to remain competitive with faster internet lines. But the question remains of how harmful this radiation is to humans.
5 G harmful - the previous LTE network
- Cell phone radiation has been criticized for years as being carcinogenic. There have been many studies, but the suspicion has not yet been answered in the affirmative or in the negative. With the expansion to a more efficient line, the fear remains, of course, that the radiation could have an even more negative impact on human health.
- The well-known cell phone radiation of the LTE system is electromagnetic radiation, which also occurs in a microwave, for example, but in an attenuated form. The so-called SAR value is decisive for cell phone radiation.
- The SAR value is given in two measurements for each cell phone. First, the measurement while making calls on the ear and when wearing the cell phone on the body. The SAR value can be found in the instructions for the cell phone or in a database of the Federal Office. A device with a SAR value of less than 0.6 is low in radiation, at most it should not exceed the number 2.
What changes in this regard with the expansion of the network
With the expansion of the network, new studies have now been commissioned to investigate the effects of 5 G radiation on humans.
- Different studies come to different results, but the cell phone radiation is still too "new" to recognize the long-term effects on health and to be able to make a qualified statement.
- However, what can be said is - the network is being expanded. Many mobile operators want to build more mobile locations. More transmitters are placed, but these have a lower transmission power. This means that the transmitters will be built closer to residential areas.
- But there are tricks to at least protect yourself against cell phone radiation. Different mobile phone brands shine differently. Here you can find out which mobile phones have the highest radiation.
