While having benefits from the use of wireless devices, a reliable evaluation of human exposure levels to radio frequency (RF) radiations is required in order to provide protection against known adverse health effects. This report discussed on the analysis of questionnaire survey conducted to investigate the effects of electromagnetic field (EMF) radiations on well-being and physiological parameters of the permanent UiTM Shah Alam staffs whose offices are around the RBSs. Besides that, this report also provides the details on the measurement and analysis of the RF signals transmitted from the antennas at the selected RBS in the UiTM campus. Only four RBS being selected based on the vicinity of the base stations and the densely populated area. The results obtained were compared to the protection levels against exposure to EMF radiations used by the Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC). From the survey results, more than half percentage of respondents agreed that they are having fatigue and headaches symptoms. All measured EMF radiations at four locations of RBS are below the maximum exposure limits set by the MCMC standard threshold for all categories frequency band. 2015 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/67799/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/67799/1/67799.pdf text en public masters Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Electrical Engineering Ariffin, Rusnani
