advocates the
use of V/m instead of power density levels
as a more apropriate unit,
also better
defined specifications for useful comparison of such measurements regarding
bandwidth and frequency range
He gives a current technically
achievable limit for the 80-2000 MegaHz range
of 0.01 V/m ( = 265 nanoW/sqm ) see his
conversion
table
this level is set by
technical consideration it does not exclude possible bioeffects at even
lower levels
for the GSM/PCS range
he proposes a limit of 0.001V/m ( = 2,7 nanoW/sqm or 0.27 picoW/sqcm)
