Cancer Incidence near Radio and Television Transmitters in Great Britain II. All High Power Transmitters

Cancer incidence near radio and television transmitters in Great Britain. II. All high power transmitters.

A small area study of cancer incidence, 1974-1986, near 20 high power television (TV) and frequency modulation (FM) radio transmitters in Great Britain was carried out to place in context the findings of an earlier study around the Sutton Coldfield transmitter. The national database of postcoded cancer registrations was used with population and socioeconomic data from the 1981 census. Cancers e...

ORIGINAL CONTRIBUTIONS Cancer Incidence near Radio and Television Transmitters in Great Britain

A small area study of cancer incidence in 1974-1986 was carried out to investigate an unconfirmed report of a "cluster" of leukemias and lymphomas near the Sutton Coldfield television (TV) and frequency modulation (FM) radio transmitter in the West Midlands, England. The study used a national database of postcoded cancer registrations, and population and socioeconomic data from the 1981 census....

Peak-to-Average Power Reduction in Digital Television Transmitters

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is one of the modulation techniques used in digital video broadcasting systems. A significant disadvantage of OFDM is that it has a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). This means that the output amplifiers of digital television transmitters must be designed to handle signals that are far in excess of the mean levels. These amplifiers are ex...
