4G wavelengths have a range of about 10 miles. 5G wavelengths have a range of about 1,000 feet, not even 2% of 4G’s range. So to ensure a reliable 5G signal, there needs to be a lot of 5G cell towers and antennas everywhere.

In suburban areas, cell towers are commonly spaced 1-2 miles apart, but in dense metropolitan cities, towers may be as close as 0.25-0.5 miles apart. Similarly, the range will vary with the terrain. For a flat terrain, it may be possible to space towers out between 30-45 miles.

Depending on terrain and other circumstances, a GSM Tower can replace between 2 and 50 miles (80 km) of cabling for fixed wireless networks. In addition, some technologies, such as GSM, have an additional absolute maximum range of 35 kilometres (22 mi), which is imposed by technical limitations.

New 5G flaws can track phone locations and spoof emergency alerts. 5G is faster and more secure than 4G. But new research shows it also has vulnerabilities that could put phone users at risk. (A similar vulnerability was found in the 4G protocol by University of Colorado Boulder researchers in June.)

High levels of RF waves can cause a warming of body tissues, but the energy levels on the ground near a cell phone tower are far below the levels needed to cause this effect. So far, there is no evidence in published scientific reports that cell phone towers cause any other health problems.

Current studies suggest both short-term and long-term health risks within 300-400 meters of a cell tower. Thus, great precautions should be taken to site cell towers away from the most vulnerable segments of the population, such as children.” www.wireless-precaution.com/main/doc/CellPhoneTowerEffects.pdf and …

The safe distance from a mobile phone tower is not an objective answer. There are multiple factors that affect mobile radiation intensity. As a thumb rule, anyone in 150 metre radius could be under risk. And if the tower is 300 metres or more distant, this could lead to weak coverage – leading to signal drops.

If you live within a quarter mile of a cell phone antenna or tower, you may be at risk of serious harm to your health, according to a German study cited at www.EMF-Health.com, a site devoted to exposing hazards associated with electromagnetic frequencies from cell phone towers and other sources.

There you’ll find a 2018 study by Valbridge Property Advisors that found negligible to no effect on home sale values within the quarter-mile radius “sphere of influence” of cell towers in neighborhoods in four major markets: Boston; Dallas; Phoenix; and Raleigh, N.C.

Tips to protect residential units against cell phone tower radiations:

Does Airplane Mode Stop all Radiation? Airplane mode terminates all wireless connections so yes, it does cut the vast majority of mobile phone radiation. Still, your phone will always emit some level of radiation provided it is switched on.

Thus, for personal radiation protection, the best defense would be a combination of thick and selective lead shielding (StemRad’s 360 Gamma), outer clothing, a respirator, gloves, and goggles.

Gold is a good radiation enhancer. The radiosensitization of biomolecules by GNPs can be caused by locally increased radiation absorbed energy. Gold, a high Z material, is capable of absorbing radiation at significantly higher rates than tissue.

These approaches involve reducing both the exposure level and duration.

1. Disable Wireless Functions. Wireless devices — including routers, printers, tablets, and laptops — all emit a Wi-Fi signal.
2. Replace Wireless With Wired Devices.
3. Keep EMF Sources at a Distance.
4. Use Your Smartphone Safely.
5. Prioritize Sleeping Areas.

Alpha particles can’t go through paper, but beta particles and gamma rays can. When the three types of radiation hit the aluminium, only the gamma rays get through. Beta particles can get through paper but the aluminium stops them. When gamma radiation hits the concrete the energy is absorbed.

Gamma rays

This is because in addition to visible light the sun is also emitting radiation from all areas of the electromagnetic spectrum from radio waves to gamma rays. The higher end of this spectrum (X-ray to gamma) is dangerous radiation to human health.
