There are many challenges linked to the digital development of french regions. In addition to deploying cutting-edge infrastructure to guarantee high-quality mobile coverage, the aim is to ensure that all citizens enjoy a living environment that complies with the regulations in place, particularly in terms of emissions and exposure to electromagnetic fields.
This challenge has led GEOMOD, publisher and distributor of the MithraREM software for simulating exposure to electromagnetic fields, and EXEM, an expert in measuring people’s exposure to electromagnetic fields, to form a commercial and technical partnership. The ultimate aim is to offer local players a new, innovative range of electromagnetic field measurement and simulation tools.
Synergies dedicated to managing the electromagnetic environment
For more than 10 years, GEOMOD and EXEM have developed unrivalled expertise in the field of human exposure to electromagnetic fields. GEOMOD, in partnership with the CSTB, has developed the MithraREM software for calculating electromagnetic field propagation and transmitter radiation on a city scale.
For its part, EXEM, a leader in measuring people’s exposure to electromagnetic fields, has developed an innovative range of services for monitoring exposure to electromagnetic fields using intelligent sensors deployed in towns and cities: the EMF Observatory.
This partnership is based on the observation that each of the proposed technologies (forecasting and measurement)
need each other to improve. The measurement will validate the forecasting models,
and the forecast will enable us to assess the level of exposure in areas not covered by the sensors.
Its mission is to provide support for local authorities so that they can provide answers to questions from the public about their exposure to electromagnetic fields, but also to anticipate the growth of telecommunications networksThis partnership should give rise to a new common tool that will bring together all the features and benefits of the offer.
The EXEM laboratory's electromagnetic field observatory
The EMF Observatory is a system for monitoring changes in the level of exposure to electromagnetic fields as a result of the deployment of antennas and increased use of the network.
The EMF Observatory allows continuous measurement of electromagnetic fields and makes the data available in
real time via its website www.observatoiredesondes.com.
Designed by EXEM, the sensors take global measurements of all radiocommunication emissions, in particular from telephony antennas (3G, 4G, 5G), Wi-Fi, FM radio and
DTT.
MithraREM software from GEOMOD
As electromagnetic field mapping software, MithraREM can be used to calculate wave propagation and transmitter radiation on a city-wide scale.
It can manage frequencies between 30 MHz and 26 GHz (radio, television, 4G, 5G, Wi-Fi, etc.), and can calculate the impact of adding antennas and modifying existing sites using simple, intuitive modelling (2D, 3D maps, etc.).
