Telecommunications industry evolution shows the highest rates of transition to high-tech systems and is accompanied by a trend of deep mutual penetration of technologies - convergence. The dominant telecommunication technologies have become wireless communication systems. The widespread use of modern wireless technologies has led to the saturation of the environment with technological electromagnetic fields and the actualization of the problems of protecting the population from them. This fundamental restructuring has led to a uniform dense placement of radiating fragments of network technologies in the mudflow areas. The changed parameters of the emitted fields became the reason for the revision of the regulatory and methodological support of electromagnetic safety. A fragmented structural, functional and parametric analysis of the problem of protecting the population from the technological fields of network technologies revealed uncertainty in the interpretation of real situations, vulnerability, weakness and groundlessness of the methodological basis of sanitary-hygienic approaches. It is shown that this applies to all stages of the electromagnetic examination of the emitting fragments of network technologies. Distrust arises on the part of specialists and the population in not only the system of sanitary-hygienic control, but also the safety of modern network technologies is being called into question. Growing social tensions and radio phobia are everywhere accompanying the development of wireless communication technologies. The basis for solving almost all problems of protecting the population can be the transfer of subjective methods and means of monitoring and sanitary-hygienic control of electromagnetic fields into the field of IT.

The year 2020 is witnessing a global health and economic crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Countries across the world are using digital technologies to fight this global crisis. These digital technologies strongly rely, in one way or another, on the availability of wireless communication systems. This paper aims to outline the role of wireless communications in the COVID-19 pandemic from multiple perspectives. First, we show how wireless communication technologies are helping to combat this pandemic by monitoring the spread of the virus, enabling healthcare automation, and enabling virtual education and conferencing. We emphasize the importance of digital inclusiveness in the pandemic and possible solutions to connect the unconnected. Next, we discuss the challenges posed by the use of wireless technologies, including concerns about privacy, security, and misinformation. Later, we highlight the importance of wireless technologies in the survival of the global economy, such as automation of industries and supply chain, e-commerce, and supporting occupations that are at risk. Finally, we outline that the rapid development of wireless technologies during the pandemic is likely to be useful in the post-pandemic era.

There is no doubt that wireless communication technologies have been one of the most interesting innovation fields in the telecommunications industry in recent years. The spectacular rate of innovation in this field has enforced the vision of ubiquitous connectivity: the vision of a world where every human being and every electronic device, from high-end supercomputers to tiny sensors of temperature in your car, can talk to each other through a dense web of communication links. A vision of this kind, although more “human-centric,” is proposed, for example, in the “Book of Visions” (2001) published by the Wireless World Research Forum. Of course, wireless communication technologies are instrumental in accomplishing this vision, as we cannot possibly imagine to connect everything by means of cables. Moreover, wireless communications offer the advantage of supporting mobility even at high speed.

Эволюция инфотелекоммуникаций, демонстрирующая стремительные темпы перехода к высокотехнологичным системам, сопровождается глубоким взаимным проникновением технологий - конвергенцией. Показано, что широкое использование беспроводных систем связи вызвало насыщение окружающей среды технологическими электромагнитными полями (ЭМП), а это, в свою очередь, актуализировало проблему защиты населения. Подчеркивается, что такая коренная перестройка привела к равномерному плотному размещению излучающих фрагментов сетей на селитебных территориях. Изменившиеся параметры излучаемых полей требуют пересмотра нормативно-методического обеспечения электромагнитной безопасности. Фрагментарный структурный, функциональный и параметрический анализ проблемы защиты населения от технологических полей выявил неопределенность в толковании реальных ситуаций, уязвимость, слабость и необоснованность методологической основы санитарно-гигиенических подходов на всех этапах электромагнитной экспертизы излучающих фрагментов сетевых технологий. Отмечается, что следствием этого являются недоверие со стороны специалистов и населения к системе санитарно-гигиенического контроля и в целом к безопасности современных технологий, растущая социальная напряженность и радиофобия. В качестве основы для решения проблем защиты населения предлагается субъективные методы и средства мониторинга ЭМП перенести в область информационных технологий. The evolution of infotelecommunications, demonstrating the rapid pace of transition to high-tech systems, is accompanied by deep mutual penetration of technologies - convergence. It is shown that the widespread use of wireless communication systems has led to the saturation of the environment with technological electromagnetic fields (EMF), and this, in turn, has actualized the problem of protecting the population. It is emphasized that such a radical restructuring has led to a uniform dense distribution of radiating network fragments in residential areas. The changed parameters of the radiated fields require a revision of the regulatory and methodological support of electromagnetic safety. A fragmentary structural, functional, and parametric analysis of the problem of protecting the population from technological fields revealed uncertainty in the interpretation of real situations, vulnerability, weakness, and groundlessness of the methodological basis of sanitary and hygienic approaches at all stages of electromagnetic examination of emitting fragments of network technologies. It is noted that the consequence of this is the distrust of specialists and the population to the system of sanitary and hygienic control and, in general, to the safety of modern technologies, growing social tension, and radiophobia. As a basis for solving the problems of protecting the population, it is proposed to transfer subjective methods and means of monitoring EMF to the field of information technologies.

Abstract ‘The art of living with ICTs (information and communication technologies)’ today not only means finding new ways to cope, interact and create new lifestyles on the basis of the new digital (network) technologies individually, as ‘consumer-citizens’. It also means inventing new modes of living, producing and, not in the least place, struggling collectively, as workers and producers. As the so-called digital revolution unfolds in the context of a neoliberal cognitive and consumerist capitalism, its ‘innovations’ are predominantly employed to modulate and control both production processes and consumer behavior in view of the overall goal of extracting surplus value. Today, the digital networks overwhelmingly destroy social autonomy, instead engendering increasing social heteronomy and proletarianization. Yet it is these very networks themselves, as technical pharmaka in the sense of French ‘technophilosopher’ Bernard Stiegler, that can be employed as no other to struggle against this tendency. This paper briefly explores this possibility by reflecting upon current diagnoses of our ‘technological situation’ by some exemplary post-operaist Marxists from a Stieglerian, pharmacological perspective.

An intelligent monitoring and control system for highway daily maintenance is described in this paper. To manage maintenance machinery and operators more effectively, geographical information system (GIS), global positioning system (GPS), and wireless communication technologies are applied to the system which consists of three subsystems, detection and maintenance sequence planning system, detection and maintenance monitoring system, and PDA execution system. Maintenance machinery sequence planning system generates routes and schedules for maintenance machinery using GIS and optimization techniques. Maintenance machinery monitoring system monitors current positions of machinery and actual maintenance results as compared with planned sequences, routes and visit times, while PDA execution system transmits information for machinery positions and actual maintenance results using GPS and wireless communication technologies. The intelligent monitoring and control system can promote operation efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.

One of the challenges of antenna development for wireless communication systems is to create an antenna that casn be operated in wide frequency so that a single antenna can be used in various wireless communication technologies. This paper discussed the wideband antenna with Telkom University Logo-shaped patch, using Fr-4 (?r = 4.3) substrate with 1.6 mm thickness. The antenna can be operated in the frequency range of 760 MHz – 13.75 GHz. The gain performance at the working frequency is still above 0 dBi. Hence, the antenna design to work properly for wireless communication systems which require relatively long distances. The Defected Ground Substrate (DGS) method is applied to achieve that bandwidth. Measurement shows the logo-shaped patch antenna achieves 12.994 GHz bandwidth with 1.33 VSWR and gain 2.85 at 921.5 MHz frequency.

The advancements in wireless communication technologies have enabled new sensing possibilities where the channel measurements of the radio are used for inferring physical changes in the surrounding environment. Relating the channel measurements to the location and actions of people has been of particular interest due to the wide range of application opportunities enabled by such a sensing capability. As an example, the low-amplitude received signal measurements of low-cost wireless communication systems have been used to detect the presence of a person, to locate and track them, identify gestures and activities of the person, and even monitor their vital signs. This chapter aims to give a deep insight on how people influence radio signals, how these effects are observed at the receiver antenna, and how the measurement system impacts the recorded measurements. These topics are presented to shed light on the relation between the location of people and signal strength measurements of narrowband radios.
