Research progress on health effect of occupational exposure to radar

Radar uses electromagnetic waves to detect, track and locate objects at certain distances, which is widely used in military, meteorological, navigation and other fields. Radar emits electromagnetic waves outward and produces non-ionizing radiation, which may be considered as a physical occupational...

description Radar uses electromagnetic waves to detect, track and locate objects at certain distances, which is widely used in military, meteorological, navigation and other fields. Radar emits electromagnetic waves outward and produces non-ionizing radiation, which may be considered as a physical occupational hazard. Epidemiological surveys found that long-term exposure to radar is associated with various adverse health effects, which may be correlated to transmitted power and frequency of radar, location of radar antenna, position of workers, and shielding effectiveness of cabins where work station is located. Based on radar frequency and electromagnetic radiation intensity, this study summarizes the health effects of radar on occupational population exposed to radar.
