Working Party 2/5 – Electromagnetic fields: emissions, immunity and human exposure
Working Party 2 made significant progress on its Work Programme and achieved the following key outcomes:
Question 6/5 - EMC issues arising from the convergence of IT and communication equipment
Eight incoming Liaison Statements were received and examined during this meeting. Seven incoming liaison statements are related to Recommendation ITU-T K.60 “Emission levels and test methods for wireline telecommunication networks to minimize electromagnetic disturbance of radio services”.
No significant progress was made on work items under the responsibility of Q6/5.
Question 7/5 - Human exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) due to radio systems and mobile equipment
Q7/5 had a successful meeting and principally discussed the Guide on Electromagnetic Field and Health. The objective of the ITU EMF Guide is to answer the common questions on EMF asked by the public, and to address related concerns. The EMF Guide will:
- provide education and information: promoting EMF information and education resources suitable for all communities, stakeholders and governments.
- support clarification of the science: referencing the WHO and other stakeholders providing information most useful in helping clarify scientific uncertainties e.g. in the areas of Radio Frequency technology, infrastructure implementation, usage, and consequential EMF exposure.
The Guide was approved as “Supplement 1 to ITU-T K.91” by WP2/5 as contained in TD638rev4.
