Turn off the WiFi and hide from the base station, you are wrong again for fear of radiation

Will the wireless routers in our homes and the carrier base stations in our lives cause harm to our health? We must use a scientific perspective to explain this problem to avoid misunderstandings.

 

Unexpectedly, it is already in 2021, and there will be news such as "the wireless router is turned off while sleeping" and "the community owner dismantles the base station and complains that there is no signal" on the Internet, and there is a lot of noise in the comment area.

Let neighbors turn off WiFi?

There are even some self-media articles and videos that make everyone turn off the wireless router at night before going to sleep, otherwise there will be radiation that affects health. This kind of article or video, even the reposting and likes are over 100,000+ early, which has caused many friends to mislead. Especially parents and the elderly are easily affected. I believe that the majority of netizens have also received such articles from their parents.

 

So, will the wireless routers at home and the carrier base stations in our lives cause health damage? We must explain this problem from a scientific point of view to avoid entering into misunderstandings.

Object to base station construction, no signal for complaint?

Based on the current online reviews, some people believe that turning on the wireless router 24 hours a day consumes electricity and radiation, especially when sleeping, which will affect human health.

 

Another part of the people think that it doesn't matter if the wireless router is used for the user's 7*24 hours without shutting down, and the refrigerator, TV and other electrical appliances in the house do not need to be cut off.

Transmitting power countries have strict restrictions, listed products must comply with

In fact, from all angles, there is no need to turn off the wireless router while sleeping. From a health perspective, WiFi is radio waves, and the radiation it generates is electromagnetic radiation. According to national standards, the transmit power of wireless routers is not allowed to exceed 100mW, and is far lower than the European and American standards. Therefore, the radiation generated by the wireless router will not have a radiation effect on the human body.

In addition, regarding 5G base stations, according to data released by operators, in the 4G era, the power of large base stations is 40 watts, and the power of small base stations is 20 watts. With the support of 5G technology, the power of micro base stations is only 10 watts, and the power of pico base stations can even reach 250 milliwatts. After beamforming, the power allocated by the 5G base station to the antenna output port is only 4 watts. Correspondingly, the power of each household lighting lamp is 15 to 40 watts, so the radiation amount of the 5G base station is minimal. In addition, operators will consider the issue of signal superposition when laying base stations, so the actual transmit power is far lower than the national standard.

 

Moreover, the radiation harmful to the human body is "ionizing radiation"! It appears in X-rays, gamma rays and neutron rays. The base stations, mobile phones and wireless routers produce "electromagnetic radiation", which will not cause harm to the human body at all when used in life.

 

Therefore, don't believe the rumors of "sleeping off the router" and "base station cannot be in the cell".
