Zarikoff, B., Malone, D. (2013), Health A Comparison of RF Exposure in Macro- and Femtocells, Physics, Vol. 105, No. 1, July, pp. 39-48. Annex 1 Smart sustainable city - EMF check-list The Sustainable City EMF Check-list’ is designed to provide an easy to use reference for city ‘Smart officials and planners in order to ensure that smart city ICT designs using wireless systems operate efficiently and in compliance with EMF exposure standards. The following check-list identifies the key elements for EMF compliance and wireless network deployment efficiency. No. Smart sustainable city - EMF check-list Check 1 EMF compliance framework □ Ensure that an EMF compliance framework is established to protect the general public and workers from the adverse effects of EMF. 2 ICT devices meet ICNIRP RF-EMF exposure guidelines □ Ensure that devices are assessed for compliance with the public exposure guidelines. 3 Wireless networks meet ICNIRP RF-EMF exposure guidelines □ Ensure that the network sites are assessed for compliance to the ICNIRP guidelines, and that access controls and safety procedures are in place for working at antenna sites. 4 Document RF-EMF compliance □ Ensure that the EMF compliance for ICT devices and networks is documented. 5 Base station antennas are selected to suit the ICT network requirements □ Ensure that the appropriate base station antennas are used to improve ICT efficiency, provide services and integrate with the environment. 6 Wireless network antennas are located in close proximity to the ICT devices □ Ensure that network and base station antennas are located where the ICT devices are being used. 7 Planning legislation incorporates ICT networks and antenna requirements □ Ensure more efficient deployment of ICT systems through a consistent approach to planning approval. 8 EMF ICT compliance information is available □ Ensure that EMF compliance information is available to the public and other interested stakeholders. 9 General EMF information is available to the community □ Ensure that the references for EMF information are the WHO and ITU resources. 10 Existence of wireless network information programme □
