Abstract: Potential impact of wind turbines on telecommunication services is an increasing concern in wind farms deployment. The evaluation of the potential disturbance of a planned wind farm requires accurate and unbiased criteria applied in a comprehensive impact study. Near-field effects of wind turbines on microwave radio links is one of the less analyzed disturbances. In this article, new theoretical-based criteria and an easy to apply step-by-step calculation procedure are proposed. Results of the method are in the form of constraint masks, easy to apply by wind farm promoters in the layout design, by telecommunications operators in the evaluation of the potential impact, and by administrations involved in license tasks. In the article, the proposed method is applied to real cases of wind farms located close to radio links facilities and compared to current criteria.
