Exposure from WiMax
The German Mobile Telecommunication Research Programme (DMF) supported a project by IMST to assess exposure from WiMAX base stations and wireless access points. For base stations, the highest exposure level was 0.003% of the ICNIRP levels. For WiMAX indoor terminal equipment measurements showed a maximal field strength of 17% of ICNIRP at 50 cm distance and 2% at 5 m. BfS recommends precautionary measures similar to WLAN routers (avoid installation close to places where people stay for extended periods of time).
