NON-IONIZING RADIATION EXPOSURE: ELECTRIC FIELD STRENGTH MEASUREMENT AROUND SELECTED BASE STATIONS IN KUALA NERUS

The human technology advancement grows rapidly especially in telecommunication sector, led to the construction of more base stations tower (BST). The non-ionizing radiation (NIR) produced is believed to have adverse impact on living things and caused public concern. This study is conducted to measur...
