Samenvatting

We aim to set up a continuous low cost monitoring system for electromagnetic fields in the Netherlands, so that a trend in exposure to 5G signals can be observed. A number of options will be explored for this, such as software-defined radio and measurement nodes for specific 5G frequencies.
We developed and tested low cost dedicated measurement nodes for four 5G bands: the 800, 1400, 2100 and 3500 MHz bands. Generally, the error is less than 1 dB and close to dynamic range limits (-65 to 5 dBm) the error increases to 3 dB.
