Measurements and Modeling of Path Loss over Irregular Terrain for Near-Ground and Short-Range Communications
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, radio wave propagation over irregular terrain is investigated in 200–600MHz (VHF/UHF band). Measured results are compared with different path loss models such as Fresnel knife edge diffraction and uniform theory of diffraction (UTD). It is shown that, for low antenna heights, using a combination of the two-ray path loss model and knife-edge diffraction, great improvement in path loss prediction accuracy is achieved. The derived model is aimed to effectively predict path loss for near-ground and short-range communication applications.

Path Loss Modeling for V2V Communication on a Slope
Path loss modeling for both regular and irregular terrains is still gaining significant attention from researchers. A sloped terrain is one specific kind of an irregular terrain that—as far as we are aware—has not been completely studied. Although some results have been published for slope path loss modeling in cellular communication, an adequate model for the case when the transmitter (Tx) and...

The Digital terrain model is an important geospatial product used as the basis of many practical projects related to geospatial information. Nowadays, a dense point cloud can be generated using the LiDAR data. Actually, the acquired point cloud of the LiDAR, presents a digital surface model that contains ground and non-ground objects. The purpose of this paper is to present a new approach of ex...
متن کاملRF PROPAGATION INVESTIGATIONS AT 915/2400 MHz IN INDOOR CORRIDOR ENVIRONMENTS FOR WIRE- LESS SENSOR COMMUNICATIONS
Propagation of Radio Frequency (RF) waves in indoor corridors is very complex and diverse as the propagation effects in the indoor scenarios are those that change over fractions of wavelength. Therefore, understanding of RF propagation characteristics is vital for the design of air interface and estimation of propagation losses is very much needed especially for wireless networks such as random...

Many people experience vibration effects on whole-body throughout their lives frequently. Vibrating energy absorbed is exposed all-body caused with vibration hazard in the vertically on body and biodynamic responses from body in speed 2.37 to 5.14 m/s could captivate with car seat on user body, so the vibration energy transferred to a seated people body. In this paper, the human body is modeled...
متن کاملField Strength Prediction in Irregular Terrain – the PTP Model
This report describes a prediction technique for the calculation of the field strength of radio waves over irregular terrain paths. The concept of an "equivalent rounded obstacle" is used to account for radio propagation losses over various possible irregular terrain shapes, including shapes which cannot easily be described geometrically. The technique replaces an arbitrary terrain profile with...
