11. Sky Wave Propagation LOS Propagation

12. Line-of-Sight Equations Optical line of sight Effective, or radio, line of sight d = distance between antenna and horizon (km) h = antenna height (m) K = adjustment factor to account for refraction, rule of thumb K = 4/3

13. Line-of-Sight Equations Maximum distance between two antennas for LOS propagation: h1 = height of antenna one h2 = height of antenna two

14. Free Space Loss Consider an Isotropic point source fed by a trans- mitter of P t Watts The energy per unit area of the surface of the sphere with radius d Hence, at a distance d, an receive antenna with effective aperture A e obtain a total power

15. Free Space Loss Define an antenna gain as Hence, the received power : The wavelength

16. Free Space Loss Free space loss, ideal isotropic antenna Pt = signal power at transmitting antenna Pr = signal power at receiving antenna = carrier wavelength d = propagation distance between antennas c = speed of light (» 3 ´ 10 8 m/s) where d and are in the same units (e.g., meters)

17. Free Space Loss Free space loss equation can be recast:

19. Log-normal distribution

20. Shadowing Effects Variations around the median path loss line due to buildings, hills, trees, etc.  Individual objects introduces random attenuation of x dB.  As the number of these x dB factors increases, the combined effects becomes Gaussian (normal) distribution (by central limit theorem) in dB scale: “Lognormal” PL(dB) = PL avg (dB) + X where X is N(0,  2 ) where  PL avg (dB) is obtained from the path loss model   is the standard deviation of X in dB
