Abstract

Abstract - In the city of Riobamba, there has been a great increase in radio bases due to the demand for telecommunications services by the population, as well as the supplier companies, with the cell phone industry showing an index higher growth. That is why there is an increase in electromagnetic radiation, which is found in the environment and day by day the population is exposed to less. Below is a study in the frequency range from 76 MHz to 2.686 GHz by means of average electric field measurements carried out next to the medical dispensary inside the ESPOCH located in the city of Riobamba, the measurement was carried out during 7 consecutive days, in the vicinity of an antenna located in the external part of the ESPOCH, to determine the behavior of the electric field, the maximum, average and minimum values of the measurements in different time ranges were taken as reference. With which it was verified that the values are below the limits established in the ICNIRP and ITU T-K.52 regulations. However, in the future it is important to have constant studies and monitoring of the areas with the greatest exposure to electromagnetic radiation, so that in this way we can determine strict compliance with the guidelines issued in the consequent regulations.
