Abstract
In this paper, short time electromagnetic radiationmeasurements were carried out at 100kHz-3 GHz frequencyband to show electromagnetic pollution level at two shoppingmalls in Konya city centre. Measurements were performed atpredetermined points on floor plans of shopping malls. NardaEMR-300 radiation meter was used as a measurement deviceand 6 minutes averaged values of measurement data wererecorded. When the measurement results were examined, it wasshown that limit values determined by ICTA (Information andCommunication Technologies Authority) and ICNIRP(International Commission on Non-Ionizing RadiationProtection) were not exceeded by the measured electromagneticradiation values and major electromagnetic radiation resourcewas signal boosting devices used for mobile phones.
