Introduction to Radio Wave Propagation
• The mobile radio channel places fundamental limitations on the performance of wireless communication systems.
• Radio channels are extremely random and do not offer easy analysis.
![Page 3: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Modeling radio channel is important for:–Determining the coverage area of a
transmitter–Finding modulation and coding
schemes to improve the channel quality
![Page 4: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Radio Propagation Models• Transmission path between sender and
receiver could be –Line-of-Sight (LOS) –Obstructed by buildings, mountains and
foliage • Even speed of motion effects the fading
characteristics of the channel
![Page 5: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
BASIC DIVISION OF PROPAGATION MODELS• Different models have been developed to
meet the needs of realizing the propagation behavior in different conditions.
• Types of models for radio propagation include:– Models for Outdoor Applications– Models for Indoor Applications
![Page 6: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Outdoor Propagation Model• Radio transmission in mobile communication
takes place over irregular terrain
• There are different propagation models available to predict the signal strength, Pr(d), by estimating the path loss at a particular sector.
![Page 7: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Irregular terrain such as simple curved earth profile, highly mountainous or trees, building etc.
• Models used are based on systematic interpretation of measurement data obtained in the service area.
• They may vary in complexity and accuracy.

TYPES OF MODELS
![Page 9: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Okumura ModelIt is wholly based on measured data, no analytical explanation
• among the simplest
• best in terms of path loss accuracy in cluttered mobile environment
Okumura developed a set of curves in urban areas with quasi-smooth terrain
![Page 10: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• It is one of the most widely used models for signal prediction in urban areas.
• Applicable for the frequencies in the range 150MHz to 1920MHz
• Distances of 1km to 100km• Antenna heights from 30m to 1000m.
![Page 11: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Okumura developed a set of curves giving the medium attenuation relative to free space (Amu), with base station effective antenna height (hte) of 200m and a mobile antenna height (hre) of 3m
• Curves are developed using vertical omnidirectional antennas at both base and mobile.
![Page 12: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Estimating path loss1. Determine free space loss, Amu(f,d),
between points of interest
2. Add Amu(f,d) and correction factors to account for terrain
![Page 13: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
L50(dB)= LF + Amu(f,d) – G(hte) – G(hre) – GAREA
L50 = 50% value of propagation path loss
LF = free space propagation loss
Amu(f,d)= median attenuation relative to free space
G(hte) = base station antenna height gain factor
G(hre) = mobile antenna height gain factor
GAREA = gain due to environment
![Page 14: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

• Extrapolations of the derived curves can be made
to obtain values outside the measurement range.
• Simplest and best in accuracy in path loss
prediction for cellular and land mobile radio
systems.
![Page 18: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
DISADVANTAGE: •slow response to rapid terrain changes, so not so
good in rural areas.
•common standard deviations between predicted
& measured path loss 10dB - 14dB
![Page 19: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hata Model It is an empirical model of graphical path loss
data from Okumura• Its range is valid from150 MHz to 1500
MHz• Hata represented urban area propagation
loss as a standard formula and supplied for correction equations for application to some situations
![Page 20: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Okumura predicts median path loss for different channels
• Propagation losses increase• with frequency• in built up areas
![Page 21: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

For small to medium sized city, mobile antenna correction factor is given by:
(hre) = (1.1log10 fc - 0.7)hre – (1.56log10 fc - 0.8) dB
![Page 23: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
For a large city, it is given as (hre) = 8.29(log10 1.54hre)2
– 1.1 dB for (fc 300MHz)
(hre) = 3.2(log10 11.75hre)2 – 4.97 dB
for (fc > 300MHz)
![Page 24: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
To obtain path loss in a suburban area, the standard Hata formula is
modified as:
L50 (dB) = L50 (urban) - 2[log10 (fc/28)]2 – 5.4
![Page 25: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
For path loss in open rural areas, the formula is modified as
L50 (dB) = L50 (urban) - 4.78(log10 fc)2 - 18.33log10 fc - 40.98
![Page 26: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

• With the advent of Personal Communication Systems (PCS), we need to characterize radio propagation inside the buildings.
• Indoor radio channels are different because– The distances covered are much smaller– The variability of the environment is much
greater
![Page 30: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Smaller Tx-Rx separation distances than outdoors• Higher environmental variability for much small
Tx-Rx separation, conditions vary from: • Doors/windows open or not• The mounting place of antenna: desk, ceiling, etc.
• The level of floors
![Page 31: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Propagation inside the building is strongly influenced by various features like– layout of the building– construction materials– building type– where the antenna mounted, …etc.
• Indoor radio propagation is dominated by 3 mechanisms– Reflection– Diffraction– Scattering
![Page 32: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• In general, indoor channels may be classified either as Line of Sight, LOS or Obstructed Sight, OBS with varying degree of clutter
• The losses between floors of a building are determined by the external dimensions and materials of the building, as well as the type of construction used to create the floors and the external surroundings.
![Page 33: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Building types • Residential homes in suburban areas• Residential homes in urban areas• Traditional office buildings with fixed walls (hard partitions) • Open plan buildings with movable wall panels (soft
partitions) • Factory buildings • Grocery or Retail stores • Sport arenas
![Page 34: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Some Key Models - Partition Losses – Same Floor- Partition Losses – Different Floor- Log-distance path loss model- Ericsson Multiple Breakpoint Model- Attenuation Factor Model
![Page 35: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Partition Losses – Same Floor• Buildings have a wide variety of
partitions and obstacles which form the internal and external structure.
• There are mainly 2 types of partitions:– hard partitions: immovable, part of building– soft partitions: movable, lower than the
ceiling
![Page 36: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Partitions vary widely in their physical and electrical properties.
• Path Loss depends upon the type of partition
![Page 37: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Partition Losses – Different FloorLosses between floors of the building are determined by •External building dimensions•Type of construction used to create the floor •External surroundings•Number of windows•Presence of tinting on windows
![Page 39: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Indoor path loss obeys the distance power law given by equation:
• n depends on surroundings and building type, for free space it is 2
• = normal random variable in dB having standard deviation dB
Log-distance Path Loss model
![Page 42: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Path Loss Exponent for Different Environments
![Page 43: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Ericsson Multiple Breakpoint Model
• It was obtained by measurements in a multiple floor office building.
• It has 4 breakpoints and considers both an upper and lower bound on path loss.
• It assumes that there is 30dB attenuation at d0 =
1m which is accurate for f = 900MHz & unity
gain antennas.
![Page 44: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
• Also it provides a deterministic limit on range of path loss at given distance
• It used a uniform distribution to generate path loss values within minimum &maximum range, as a function of distance for in-building simulation.
![Page 45: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Attenuation Factor Model• It includes effect of building type & variations
caused by obstacles.• It provides flexibility and reduces standard
deviation between measured and predicted path loss to 4dB
• Compared to standard deviation for path loss with log-distance model i.e. 13dB for 2 different buildings
![Page 48: Propagation Models](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081505/58a752961a28ab9f5a8b6597/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
nSF = exponent value for same floor measurement – must be accurate
FAF = floor attenuation factor for different floor PAF = partition attenuation factor for obstruction
encountered by primary ray tracing

EXAMPLEFind the mean path loss 30m from the transmitter, through 3 floors of the Office building 1. Assume 2 concrete block walls are between the transmitter and receiver on the intermediate floors. Mean path loss exponent for same-floor measurements in a building is n=3.27, mean path loss exponent for three-floor measurements in a building is n=5.22, while floor attenuation factor FAF=24.4 dB.

Mean path loss for same floor measurement is
= PL(1m) + 10*3.27*log(30) + 24.2 + 2*13= 130.2 Db
Mean path loss for different floor measurement is
