Building Obstruction in Satellite Mobile Communication Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a simple model for the evaluation of obstruction caused by multiple buildings in satellite mobile communication systems, or in high-altitude platform (HAP) coverage. The proposed model can be useful for integration into propagation prediction tools. It is based on the KichhoffHuygens formulation, and includes the effect of ground reflections and reflections on a facing building. The performance of this model is evaluated by comparing it with available results from a more complex model based on the UTD.

A general statistical channel model for mobile satellite systems
In order to guarantee the service quality and reliability for mobile satellite communication systems, we have to take into account outages due to obstruction of the line-of-sight path between a satellite and a mobile terminal as well as the signal fluctuation caused by interference from multipath radio waves. Thus, we need a good characterization for the satellite propagation channel. In this p...
