| dc.description | The Commission for Communications Regulation (“ComReg”) is the national authority responsible for the management of Ireland’s radio frequency spectrum. Radio spectrum is used to support a wide range of applications and electronic communications services, such as radio and television broadcasting, mobile telephony, emergency services communications, and wireless broadband. It is a condition of various Wireless Telegraphy licences issued by ComReg that licensees must ensure that non-ionising radiation (“NIR”) emissions from each transmitter operated under the licence must be within the limits set down in the guidelines published by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (“ICNIRP”) (“ICNIRP Exposure Limits”). Levels of NIR emissions from a licensed transmitter must not exceed the ICNIRP Exposure Limits in any part of the site or surrounding area to which the general public has access. This is also a condition of a General Authorisation for the provision of an electronic communications network (“ECN”) and/or service (“ECS”). In order to assess compliance with the ICNIRP Exposure Limits, ComReg conducts a “Programme of Measurement of Non-Ionising Radiation” (“Programme of Measurement”), under which NIR surveys are conducted near a sample number of licensed transmitter sites nationwide each year. Each survey involves measurement of NIR levels at the point of highest exposure (in a public area) associated with the relevant transmitter. This report forms part of an ongoing series of interim reports which outline ComReg’s Programme of Measurements, and summarises the results of the second set of site surveys (20 sites) undertaken during the 2019 programme. These surveys were conducted between July and September 2019 by Compliance Engineering Ireland Ltd, which was contracted by ComReg to assist it with the Programme of Measurement. | en |
