News Image
IEEE Broadcast Technology Society (BTS) will host a tutorial session on radiation exposure through RF at the 2015 NAB Show's Broadcast Engineering Conference (BEC) on April 13.

'RF Radiation Exposure Safety Standards, Practices, and Regulations' will see Wavepoint Research President Eric R. Wandel and Robert Cleveland of EMF Consulting co-chair the three-hour session, scheduled for 15:00, room S228 of the Las Vegas Convention Center.

"Our society strives to provide relevant ongoing educational opportunities to our membership and to the broadcast industry," Mr Wandel said. "At the 2015 NAB Show, BTS continues with this tradition of learning by assembling a full lineup of experts to explore several important aspects of RF radiation safety, a topic that affects a very large cross-section of the broadcast industry."

C.K. Chou of C-K Chou Consulting and chairman of ICES TC95, will also provide an update on the standards of the IEEE International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety (ICES). Martin Doczkat, technical analysis branch chief for the FCC's Office of Engineering and Technology, will explain the FCC's current policies and recent proposals for adoption of RF standards.

Bob Weller, NAB's V.P. for spectrum policy, will discuss practical considerations like responsibility at multiple-user sites, colocation considerations, techniques in antenna system design to reduce unwanted RF, and rooftop and tower analysis of RF exposure.

The final session will feature a presentation on examples of RF exposure problems, including measurement equipment and techniques that take into account operator-induced uncertainty, presented by Doczkat and James Hatfield of Hatfield and Dawson Consulting.
