Executive Summary • All measured RF EME levels were well below the ARPANSA1 RPS3 General Public

Exposure Limit.

• The highest cumulative RF EME (all services across 75MHz to 3GHz frequency band) level measured across the specified measurement locations was found to be 0.0135% of the allowable ARPANSA RPS3 General Public Exposure Limit. This is more than 7,400 times below the limit.

• The highest RF EME contributed by the new NBNCo installation measured across all measurement locations was 0.0044% of the ARPANSA RPS3 General Public Exposure Limit, measured at Bush Sanctuary Road, south of the NBNCo site. This is more than 22,700 times below the General Public Exposure Limit.

• According to ARPANSA and the World Health Organisation, RF EME Levels as low as

these found in the survey, are not known to cause adverse health effects. 1. Introduction Mr Joel Rodski, Environmental Planner at Visionstream Pty Ltd2

engaged Radhaz Consulting Pty Ltd as an independent consultancy, to undertake post-commissioning Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Energy (RF EME) measurements at multiple locations around a newly constructed NBNCo site located at 11 Mount View Road in Faraday, Victoria 3451. NBNCo has installed three panel and one microwave dish antennas on a 35m steel monopole which are used to provide NBNCo Fixed Wireless services in the vicinity of the monopole. The post-commissioning measurements were a follow-up to the pre-commissioning measurements (conducted on 3 October 2013). The pre-commissioning measurement results were reported in Radhaz report no: 32960-1(Issue A) dated 21 October 2013 and are attached in Appendix B of this report. The objective of the post-commissioning measurement was to measure the RF EME level emitted by the new NBNCo LTE2300 installation. The measured RF EME levels in the report are compared to the General Public RF EME limits specified by ARPANSA in their RPS3 document.

2. Federal Government Legal Requirements The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has conditions on the operation of radiocommunications transmitters. These conditions regulate the exposure of the general public to RF EME levels produced by all licensed RF transmitters. Licensed RF transmitter operators are required to ensure that the general public is not exposed to RF EME levels from their service in excess of prescribed limits. The prescribed limits are the reference field strength levels from the ARPANSA Radiation Protection Standard RPS3; Standard for Maximum Exposure Levels to Radio Frequency Fields – 3 kHz to 300 GHz (2002). Further information can be gained from the ACMA and ARPANSA web sites: http://www.acma.gov.au/ACMAINTER:STANDARD:pc=PC_2798 http://www.arpansa.gov.au/pubs/rps/rps3.pdf 3. Methodology

3.2. Measurement Method

3.2.1. The RF EME measurements were performed at the same locations as the pre-

commissioning measurement conducted in October 2013. The measurement locations were as follows: • Location 1: Adjacent to NBNCo monopole • Location 2: Mount View Rd adjacent to closest residence entrance gate • Location 3: Corner of Mount View Rd and Kennedys Ln • Location 4: Bush Sanctuary Rd, south of NBNCo site • Location 5: At Dishpan Gully, west of NBNCo site • Location 6: Adjacent to Calder Hwy, east of NBNCo site

Refer to Appendix A for measurement location details and photographs.

3.2.2. Under normal operation of the NBNCo LTE2300 installation, its emission level

varies with the traffic level being carried over the network. For the purpose of the post-commissioning measurement, the NBNCo LTE2300 system was configured to transmit with artificial traffic load simulating a system operating at full capacity. This was done in order to measure the maximum possible EME levels emitted from the new NBNCo LTE2300 system when in operation.

http://www.arpansa.gov.au/pubs/rps/rps3.pdf



3.2.3. The measurement probe was mounted vertically on a tripod at a height of 1.5m above ground level and connected to the Narda SRM-3000 meter using a 1.5m cable for the measurements.

3.2.4. The SRM-3000 meter was configured to measure the RF EME resulting from the

NBNCo LTE2300 services at each of the measurement locations.

3.2.5. Each RF EME measurement was time averaged over a period of one minute with the result recorded as it existed at the time of the measurement. Measurements were conducted between 3:00pm and 4:30pm. The measurement results are reported in Table 1 in Section 4.

RF EME measurements were taken as per Australian Standard AS/NZS 2772.2:2011 Radiofrequency Fields - Principles and Methods of Measurement and Computation – 3 kHz to 300 GHz. Due to the changing exposure limit with frequency, cumulative exposure with respect to the ARPANSA RPS3 limit can only be expressed in terms of percentage of the exposure limits. A reported value of 100 per cent would indicate that the exposure level was at the allowable limit. The exposure limits are shown on Table 7 of RPS3, this can be viewed at: http://www.arpansa.gov.au/pubs/rps/rps3.pdf

Refer to Appendix C for additional technical analysis and details relating to the measurement process.

Appendix C – Measurement Details • The measured value includes the instrument noise. The actual RF EME level will be lower

than the reported values.

• The NBNCo LTE2300 was configured to transmit with full load simulating a system operating at full capacity. This was done by activating the AILG (Air Interface Load Generator) feature of the base station with 100% Physical Resource Block load level.

• The SRM3000 meter measures the electric field strength and then converts the levels to the

equivalent power density. • By adhering to documented processes and implementing proven field techniques the

estimated uncertainty budget can be minimised. Measurement expanded uncertainty has been calculated in accordance with the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025.

• The expanded measurement uncertainty for the SRM-3000 monitor/probe was calculated as,

U = ±3dB, with a coverage factor k = 2, and a level of confidence of 95%. • All Narda SRM-3000 measurements were recorded as a percentage of the general public

limit of the ARPANSA RPS3 Standard. • RADHAZ Consulting permanently stores all measurement equipment calibration details, site

maps and recorded measurement scans.
