摘要：The progress of communication technology led to
large-scale use of wireless devices both in occupational environment and in
private life. Consequently, human exposure to high-frequency electromagnetic
fields is increasing and it is necessary to assess it. An important step in
exposure assessment consists in measuring electromagnetic field levels at
workplaces, in public areas or in residential buildings. To help understanding
the requirements concerning the process of measuring field levels, we present
some knowledge in this domain. Principles regarding field characterization and
measurement are discussed. Basic knowledge on sensors, probes and instruments
adequate for field measurement in the high-frequency range are also presented.
In the last part of this paper, we focused on main types of instruments, main
categories of measuring methods and some general procedure for accurate
measurement of high-frequency electromagnetic fields.
