Wireless Technologies and their Radiation Hazards: A Practical Observation
نویسنده
چکیده
With the dawn of the 21st century, the communication technologies have advanced manifold. Where people earlier used to seek telephone lines to get a dial up internet connection with a speed of 56 kbps, now they can access broadband speeds on the move without any wires. So, this explains the extent to which the technology has advanced in a very short period. But, as we know that the electromagnetic waves used by the wireless systems are absorbed by the human body, so the advancement in various technologies have created health issues which will be discussed in this paper.
