  • 本論文「微波天線及電磁輻射對健康影響之研究」係針對微波頻帶之手機、個人數位助理、筆記型電腦等個人終端設備無線上網所需天線之設計,另一方面探討手機等無線終端設備、行動通信基地台及高功率氣象雷達站等民眾所關切之電磁波輻射對健康影響之議題。
    寬頻與多頻技術是被認為最具發展潛力,而且是突破傳輸速率,提供終端的個人通訊網路創新服務的關鍵技術。此技術的發展則是以積體電路、低功耗、天線設計為基礎,天線設計則被要求朝極小化、寬頻與多頻化發展,所以雙頻、三頻等多工的天線需求也成為設計的重點,本研究曾以雙偶極、貼片、環形、倒F型設計天線,經過設計、模擬、實作及量測,結果證明所設計之天線都能符合構造簡單、輕薄端小、成本低廉等需求。
    此外,鑑於無線電技術發展,終端應用不斷的推陳出新,民眾不管在居家、職場或公共場所都面臨著無所不在的無線電波暴露,包括行動電話、基地台、無線電話副機、無線寬頻接取設備、電腦、數位電視、雷達、無線網路等,電磁波輻射安全成為民眾關切的議題,因此本研究也針對微波頻段電磁波輻射安全加以探討。
    本研究探討200多篇有關電磁波輻射正面及負面效應之研究,並依物理研究、動物試驗、人體研究、流行病學研究及心理學研究加以分類整理。我們也參考國內500多處行動電話基地台量測數據及實際量測一座高功率的氣象雷達站,結果發現量測的數據也都遠低於安全標準值。根據世界衛生組織2010年5月所發佈的公告,使用行動電話是否會對健康造成負面效應還是未能證實,而動物生化研究及流行病學研究的結果則發現射頻電磁波暴露和負面的健康效應因果關係的證據歧見較為明顯。
    面對仍然不斷有負面效應的研究結果產出及是否造成負面效之不確定性,有些團體提出政府或民眾應該採取一些預警措施,並修正比較嚴格的電磁波輻射安全標準,本研究也關切到這個議題,並且提出一些建議。


    This thesis is focused on the antenna design for wireless communications, including mobile phone sets, PDAs, note book, and wireless internet. In addition, this thesis investigates the electromagnetic radiation hazard issues concerned to the public from mobile phone, base station, wireless telecommunication terminals and high power weather radar.
    Wideband and multiband technologies have been regarded as two of the most promising wireless technologies that promise to revolutionize high data rate transmission and enables the personal area networking industry leading to new innovations and greater quality of services to the end users. These rapid improvements were based on designs of integrated circuits with lower power consumption and smaller antenna design. Antenna design does not only focus on minimizing physical size but also on covering wider bandwidth frequencies in very limited space available. Hence, multiple bands, such as dual band, triple band, or more bands, become an important requirement. We propose some antennas, including dipole, patch, loop, inverted F type, that are simple in structure, easy production, and low cost to meet the requirements.
    In addition, we interest in the electromagnetic radiation from antennas, because there has been an unprecedented increase in the use of devices emitting electromagnetic fields (EMFs) whether at home, in public places or at work in recent years. The presence of radio waves from wireless technologies has become ubiquitous. We are being exposed to increasing levels of electromagnetic radiation almost everywhere from an increasing number of sources, including cell phones, base stations, cordless phones, wireless broadband accesses, computers, digital TVs, radar, wireless internets, and wireless LANs.
    We have reviewed hundreds of studies about the pros and cons of health effect from low RF exposure levels below the present guidelines. These pros and cons studies are categorized into physical, animal, human, epidemiological, and psychological studies. We have reviewed about five hundred base stations measurement reports in northern Taiwan and practically measured a high power weather radar, then compared the results with the international exposure standards. All of them are far below the standards. The WHO’s newly Fact Sheet issued in May 2010 reports that:” To date, no adverse health effects have been established for mobile phone use. Results of epidemiological studies provide no consistent evidence of a causal relationship between radiofrequency exposure and any adverse health effect.” These evidences reveal that the health issues of EM radiation seem overanxious to the public and over-exaggerated to the media.
    But facing many negative studies coming out and the effects of uncertainty, some groups recommended precautionary measures should be taken and exposure limits should be revised. We alsoconcern on these and recommend the measures to the public and the government.
