The present invention relates to environmental control of radiation sources. More particularly, the invention relates to continuous management and control of wireless radio telecommunication non-ionizing radiation sources.
In recent years, concerns have been raised about a possible link between some types of non-ionizing radiation and cancer. Non-ionizing radiation is low-frequency radiation that does not have enough energy to directly damage DNA, but it may be able to affect live human cells in other ways. Cell phones, as other electrical devices emit non-ionizing radiation. Therefore, cellular network operators are subjected to governmental laws and regulations regarding the level of radiation emitted from their transmitting sources.
In a typical cellular radio system, Base Stations (BSs) and mobile User Equipment units (UEs) communicate voice and data via a Radio Access Network (RAN) to one or more core networks. BSs are typically cellular base stations, which consist of transceivers and antennas. The mobile UEs are mobile devices, such as cellular telephones and laptops with mobile termination. The core network is a central part of a telecom network that provides various services to customers who are connected to it.
The above and other characteristics and advantages of the invention will be better understood through the following illustrative and non-limitative detailed description of embodiments thereof, with reference to the appended drawings, wherein:
FIG. 1 is a high level schematic illustration of an on-line radiation management and control system, constructed and operated in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram of one exemplary embodiment of the anomaly detecting part of the present invention;
In the following description, for the purpose of illustration, numerous specific details are provided. As will be apparent to the skilled person, however, the invention is not limited to such specific details and the skilled person will be able to devise alternative arrangements.
The key idea of the present invention is to manage and control non-ionizing radiation sources, online The system proposed by the present invention is capable of alerting supervisory bodies, cellular radiation source owners, and local municipalities and districts of non-ionizing environmental hazards, essentially in real-time. Each transmitter in a cellular network is executing live measurement of the RF link. The system proposed by the present invention uses those accurate transmitters' measurements and performs analysis and calculations, in order to compare them with the parameters set of the permit.
FIG. 1 is a high level schematic illustration of an on-line radiation management and control system, constructed and operative in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The Radiation Management System (RMS) 101 is the data management system which interfaces, via the Internet, for example, with one or more radio access networks 102-103. The RMS interfaces and operates with one or more cellular network operators. Each access network 102-103 consists of one or more Radio Network Controller (RNC) 107, antennas which carry the power of the BS (Base Station) 104 and the UE (User Equipment unit) 105. The system proposed by the present invention 106, is connected to the Radio Network Controller (RNC) 107. The present invention comprises a software module, which continuously monitors the information transfers between the RNC 107 and the BS 104.
