  Electromagnetic Fields
Through the use of certain technologies – e. g. power supply network and mobile communication – electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields are generated in man´s environment. These fields can be described by their strength (amplitude), their oscillation (wave length) and number of oscillations (frequency). One differentiates high-frequency and low-frequency fields, they are part – as is optical radiation – of non-ionising radiation. In contrast to ionising radiation – e. g. X-rays – the energy of this radiation is not sufficient for charging atoms and molecules electrically – for ionising them. Nevertheless can this type of irradiation have impacts on health. Different concepts serve to protect against immediate hazards and as precaution.

Biological effects due to energy absorption and heating
|
|
Radiofrequency electromagnetic fields are absorbed by the body mass of living organisms and may subsequently provoke various effects. The absorption of energy depends mainly on the intensity and the frequency of the electromagnetic fields but also on the properties and structure of the biological tissues.
