Abstract

This study examines the correlation between exposure to GSM phone radiation and the quality of sleep in subjects. A varied group of 15 adults between the ages of 18 and 65 was selected, with demographic information gathered in addition to objective and subjective sleep measurements. Specialized equipment was used to monitor GSM phone radiation levels, while sleep quality was evaluated using polysomnography (PSG) devices and self-reported sleep diaries. Correlation analyses showed substantial links between GSM phone radiation exposure and different sleep metrics such as total sleep time, sleep onset delay, sleep efficiency, and subjective sleep quality ratings. Higher levels of GSM phone radiation were linked to longer total sleep lengths and longer sleep onset latencies, as well as worse sleep efficiency and poorer subjective sleep quality. The results emphasize the significance of examining how mobile phone use can affect sleep quality and emphasize the necessity for additional study to clarify the underlying mechanisms and determine causation.
