Popis: The universal study reveals that Electromagnetic Frequency (EMF) exposure is upsetting the environment. It focuses keenly on the people residing in the neighboring of the base stations / mobile towers were affected by environmental radiation pollution. The effect of EMF radiation on human life is unusually increasing on dayto-day basis. As the number of customers using mobiles rises, one would see the mobile phone towers / base trans-receiver station (BTS) increases; and this has a great and huge impact on radiation hazards. Mobile phones have the capability of emitting radiations that would affect human tissues and it runs a two-way communication paradigm. Radio Frequency (RF) wave establishes communication around the globe in the mobile network. However, the radiations emitted by RF waves are harmful if absorbed into the human tissues. The most side effects experienced when nearer to these towers are headaches, discomfort, anxiety and other diseases. The radiation hazards are found to be extraordinarily more where the cell towers were installed nearer to educational institutes, healthcare and few residential areas. They were recommended to move / stay away from such areas, the radiations can cause tumors, disturbance of the nervous system and other diseases. The study is to understand the radiation exposure limits that would protect the public health from the EMF exposure. RF radiations were mapped by geographic information system (GIS) based measuring approach that helps in detecting places where users are in health hazards in exposed areas. This helps government and health organization to estimate the distribution of radiation in areas nearer to the location of mobile towers. Realization among the people was made to live and spend less time based on the radiation levels of exposure with the mobile towers. The analysis was carried out by STATA software to measure the poisson exposure of confidence interval. The poisson regression calculated for the mobile towers is 47473.38 and -0.00001 for Andhra Pradesh state respectively. Similarly, the poisson exposure is 19.2096 and CI is found to be 0.0013 to 0.2900 in Telangana state of India
