18、 a broadcast site. This assessment may be applied at any time but must be carried out when the exposure situation changes in or around this site. It plays an essential role in the coordination of different stakeholders, with respect to ensuring EMF exposure compliance in and around a broadcast site
19、especially for equipment installed within the site. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

23、rectly on established health effects NOTE In the frequency range from 30 MHz to 10 GHz, the physical quantity used is the specific absorption rate. Between 10 GHz and 40 GHz, the physical quantity is the power density. 3.2 broadcasting service radiocommunication services in which the transmissions a

29、mpliance with basic restrictions NOTE If measured values are higher than reference levels, it does not necessarily follow that the basic restrictions have been exceeded, but a more detailed analysis is necessary to assess compliance with the basic restrictions. 3.9 relevant domain in the absence of
30、a national or local definition, domain surrounding the site where the sum of the exposure ratios from all sources of the site shall be more than 5 % at some height 3.10 relevant source the principle of relevance establishes the conditions under which a radio source is considered relevant such that a
31、ccount has to be taken of the contribution of that source when assessing RF exposure NOTE In the absence of a national or local definition, the relevant source is a fixed radio source, in the frequency range 100 kHz to 40 GHz, which has an exposure ratio more than 5 % in the relevant domain.

34、d by an employer, including trainees and apprentices but excluding domestic servants Directive 89/391/EEC 4 4 Assessment fundamentals 4.1 Level of protection In Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC 2, it is stated: “II. Member States, in order to provide for a high level of health protection against e
35、xposure to electromagnetic fields, should: (a) adopt a framework of basic restrictions and reference levels using Annex I.B as the basis; (b) (c) aim to achieve respect of the basic restrictions given in Annex II for public exposure.” and “(15) Member States may, in accordance with the Treaty, provi
36、de for a higher level of protection than that set out in this recommendation;” In consequence, national or local relevant regulations define the level of protection for applying this European Standard, expressed in basic restrictions and/or reference levels. 4.2 Worker/public exposure In 2, it is st
37、ated: “(14) In accordance with the principle of proportionality, this recommendation provides general principles and methods for the protection of members of the public while leaving it to the Member States to provide for detailed rules as regards the sources and practices which give rise to exposur
38、e to electromagnetic fields and the classification, as work-related or not, of conditions of exposure of individuals, in accordance with Community provisions concerning the safety and health protection of workers;” Worker exposure at broadcast sites is dealt with in EN 50496 in accordance with Direc
39、tives 2004/40/EC and 2008/46/EC 3. BS EN 50554:2010 7 EN 50554:2010 4.3 Stakeholders In 2, it is stated: “II. Member States, in order to provide for a high level of health protection against exposure to electromagnetic fields, should: (a) (b) implement measures according to this framework,;” and “II
40、I. Member States, in order to facilitate and promote respect of the basic restrictions given in Annex II: (a) (b) should evaluate situations involving sources of more than one frequency in accordance with the formulae set out in Annex IV, both in terms of basic restrictions and reference levels;” In
41、 consequence, national or local relevant regulations define the stakeholders responsible for applying this European Standard. Potentially involved stakeholders: a) site owner; b) licence holder; c) national authority; d) technical operator; e) community representatives; f) broadcaster; g) local auth
42、ority; h) content provider; i) party originating the change; j) assessment manager; k) measurement laboratory. 4.4 Actions required In 2, it is stated: “IV. Member States should consider both the risks and benefits in deciding whether action is required or not, pursuant to this recommendation, when
43、deciding on policy or adopting measures on exposure of members of the public to electromagnetic fields.” 4.5 Simultaneous exposure to fields at different frequencies In Annex IV of 2, it is stated: “In situations where simultaneous exposure to fields of different frequencies occurs, the possibility
44、that these exposures will be additive in their effects must be considered.” BS EN 50554:2010EN 50554:2010 8 Simultaneous exposure to fields of different frequencies is the common case at broadcast sites and has to be taken into account during the public and worker exposure assessment. If a national
45、or local relevant regulation treating multiple sources is available then this regulation shall be applied. If not, a threshold level has to be set, linked with the level of protection: each relevant source needs to be included to evaluate its influence. 4.6 Area to perform a detailed assessment In 2
46、, it is stated: “(9) This recommendation therefore applies, in particular, to relevant areas where members of the public spend significant time in relation to the effects covered by this recommendation;” Every place where the public and/or workers can access needs to be assessed. The emissions from
47、a broadcast site only need to be taken into account within its relevant domain. 5 Assessment methodology in the relevant domain when the exposure situation changes 5.1 Introduction Change is defined as a variation in the exposure situation which has not been previously assessed. 5.2 Determination of
48、 the Threshold Distance (TD) The TD is the minimum distance out from the boundary of the controlled area at which compliance with the basic standards (EN 50413 and EN 50383) is achieved at all heights when considering emissions from the site alone. EN 50413 and EN 50383 give the methodology for dete
49、rmining the threshold distance using the radiation pattern of the antennas. The TD shall be determined by the broadcast operator of the highest authorized ERP value on the site. In the absence of data to carry out the required calculation, the threshold distance can be defined by using a worst case configuration of the services. An example of a simple method for estimation of the TD from a broadcast site is described in Annex A. 5.3 Area definition Assessment of the overall exposure can be ma
