According to the results of simulations carried out in 7 French cities, the deployment of 4G should increase the public’s exposure to telephone waves by around 50%.
While two reports submitted to the government yesterday by the operational committee on mobile telephone waves (Copic) explain that to reduce public exposure, it would necessarily be necessary to lower their current power and therefore multiply their current number at least by 3, which about the impact of the upcoming deployment of fourth generation mobile telephony networks? Remember that 4G technology provides access to speeds 50 times greater than that of 3G, thus facilitating downloads of large files and the creation of new services.
Precisely the last stage of the experiments commissioned by the experts of Copic looked at this question of the generalization of “very high speed” in the territory. This simulation work carried out in 2012 therefore reveals that the addition of 4G relay antennas in all the cities studied would increase by 50% on average. “The simulations in seven cities illustrating the different typologies confirmed that the addition of 4G transmitters creates an increase in exposure. In fact, by considering theoretical 4G transmitters with deployment assumptions in principle increasing, we would obtain in all these cities, an average increase in facade and ground exposure of approximately 50%. For example, on the ground in the experimental area of Paris 14th arrondissement, the average exposure would drop from 0.6 V / m to 0.9 V / m approximately ”write the experts in their report.
While the 4G site is accelerating across France, the conclusions of this report should further worry opponents of the device. In any case, despite the opposition, SFR recently indicated that its 4G has already been operating since mid-June, with 80% of the population covered and Bouygues Telecom will launch its 4G device on the 1st.er October in a hundred cities.
