This means they produce radio frequency radiation. The base stations still are low power (short range) which means the exposure level of radiation from them is generally very low.
This may not be much of an issue these days with the telecommunications act now in place and research that's been done on the radiation emission levels from mobile phone towers finding the levels to be far too low to cause any biological effects. Even though long term effects are still unknown. From previous days though there was much public concern about the connection between base station antennas and cancer. After recent research from scientists though it is evident that there is very little reason to concern about possible health risks from mobile phone base stations. The major complaints have been from parents concerning their children that attend schools with mobile phone base stations attached to the top of school buildings or adjacent to them. Scientists found that there was a much higher concentration of RF radiation at a certain spot a distance from the base station, which sparked concern among parents. These concerns were dismissed since research was done to find that this higher level of radiation was still well below the safety levels. .
