4. Radio environment
In our daily lives, today's electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields can have four origins: natural, domestic, industrial, scientific and medical. Environmental radiation is not the result of a single source; we generally have to consider the resulting radiative fields. A full description of the sources of electromagnetic radiation is given by J.C. Alliot
