Exposure to LTE EMF reduced spectral power and interhemispheric coherence in the alpha and beta bands of frontal and temporal brain regions.

Plain English Summary

Summary written for general audiences

Researchers evaluated changes in EEG due to LTE EMF exposure. Exposure reduced spectral power and interhemispheric coherence in the alpha and beta bands of frontal and temporal brain regions. No significant change was observed in spectral power and interhemispheric coherence across different timeslots during and after exposure.

Why This Matters

An LTE EMF exposure system with stable power emission equivalent to the maximum emission from an LTE mobile phone was used to radiate the subjects. Numerical simulations were conducted to ensure the specific absorption rate in the subject's head was below safety limits. The findings corroborated those of a previous functional magnetic resonance imaging study.
