Description
This work presents an interactive approach to designing wireless networks with electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure awareness using augmented reality (AR) and digital twin technologies. The system enables real-time visualization and optimization of base station deployments while considering EMF exposure constraints. Utilizing photogrammetry for geometry estimation and the Ray-Tracing method for wireless propagation prediction, the system captures, augments and simulates realistic propagation environments, then calculates EMF exposure levels. The AR interface allows network planners to visualize predicted EMF levels and exposure hotspots directly overlaid on the physical environment. The digital twin maintains a synchronized virtual model of the network deployment, enabling rapid assessment of different design scenarios. This technical demonstration showcases how modern visualization and simulation technologies can be combined to design EMF-aware wireless network deployments. This will be especially relevant for 6G massive antenna array systems, where spatial focusing of radio signals creates complex exposure patterns.
