| Abstract |
In this chapter, we focus on measurement devices and simulation tools used to establish EMF exposure levels with given precision and uncertainty. First, we establish the types of EMF exposure metrics to answer what we want to measure. Second, we discuss different equipment, tools, protocols, which are used to measure the EMF exposure levels today. The third part is focused to address the future needs in terms of EMF exposure estimation and how to address them. A case study is presented with implementation of solutions adapted to a smart-city scenario with a quasi-realtime EMF exposure estimation and monitoring. Finally, conclusions are drawn and perspectives are identified.
