Symptoms (headaches, poor sleep, concentration problems) correlated with measured RF exposure, not distance alone.
Lowest exposure group: <10 µW/m²
Highest exposure group: >1000 µW/m²

Discussion
Residents living <300 m from towers had significantly worse performance on neuro tests.
Abdel-Rassoul et al. (2007), Egypt
Dose-response observed: Symptoms like fatigue, nausea, irritability increased with proximity <300 m.
Santini et al. (2002), France
RF exposure from base stations significantly associated with sleep issues and mental well-being, especially among people living within 500 m.
