Figure 1 RF exposure levels (as a % of the ICNIRP permitted levels for general public exposure) at ground level as a function of horizontal distance from a mobile phone mast (base station). Scale is in m. Note that maximum values are obtained between 100 and 200 m from the mast. PEL, permitted exposure level.
