15、el Description of the calculation method 1 Introduction This Recommendation describes a set of models that can be used for estimating the loss due to clutter for a number of different environments. These models can be used as an end correction to long distance or over the rooftop models. This Recomm

16、endation defines categories for clutter environments and provides methods for estimating path loss between the rooftop and a terminal within the clutter. Statistical models are to be used when precise knowledge of the radio path is not known such as the width of streets, heights of buildings, depth

17、of vegetation. 1.1 Definitions of clutter and clutter loss “Clutter” is described here in the context of ITU-R P-Series Recommendations. Clutter refers to objects, such as buildings or vegetation, which are on the surface of the Earth but not actually terrain. Clutter around a radio transmitter/rece

18、iver terminal can have a significant effect on the overall propagation. It is normally the clutter closest to the terminal that has most effect on the propagation, but the actual distance will depend on the nature of the clutter and the radio parameters. Clutter loss models in this Recommendation ar

19、e statistical in nature. As an end correction for a long-path propagation model, “Clutter loss” is defined as the difference in the transmission loss or basic transmission loss1 with and without the presence of terminal clutter at either end of the path with all other path details being the same. Sh

20、ort-path propagation models take into account the effect of clutter along the full length of the path. 2 Model selection The appropriate model should be selected based on frequency, environment around the terminal and path type, a summary of models is given in Table 1. 1 Definitions of “transmission

21、 loss” and “basic transmission loss” are given in Recommendation ITU-R P.341. Rec. ITU-R P.2108-0 3 TABLE 1 Summary of Models Terminal environment Ref.

24、90 degrees. 3 Clutter loss models A number of methods are described in the following sections. In each section, there is a description of the model and its appropriate application, the input parameters required and a calculation method. 3.1 Height gain terminal correction model This method, which is

25、 the same as the method in 4.7 of Recommendation ITU-R P.1812, gives the median of losses due to different terminal surroundings. The possible mechanisms include obstruction loss and reflections due to clutter objects at the representative height, and scattering and reflection from the ground and sm

26、aller clutter objects. When using a computer implementation, with terrain profile extracted from a digital terrain model, and with the terminal surroundings defined by a clutter category, it is not practicable to identify individual mechanisms. The method used here distinguishes between two general

27、cases: for woodland and urban categories. It is assumed that the dominant mechanism is diffraction over clutter. For other categories, it is assumed that reflection or scattering dominates. An additional loss, Ah, is calculated which can be added to the basic transmission loss of a path calculated a

28、bove the clutter, therefore basic transmission loss should be calculated to/from the height of the representative clutter height used. This model can be applied to both transmitting and receiving ends of the path. Frequency range: 0.03 to 3 GHz 3.1.1 Input parameters Input parameters are given in Ta

32、J() is set to zero for 0.78. When the transmitter or receiver antenna is located below the height R representative of ground cover surrounding the transmitter or receiver, estimates of the additional loss, Ah, is calculated as follows. Where available, representative clutter heights based on accurat

33、e clutter height information should be used but if this is not available information is given in Table 3. The method for modelling losses at the transmitter and receiver is identical. If h R then Ah = 0. If h R then Ah can take one of two forms, depending on clutter type (see Table 3): 036.)(JAh dB

34、(2a) or: )/lo g( 2 RhKA hh dB (2b) J() is calculated using equation (1). Rec.

35、metres). This should be set to 27 unless there is specific local information available. The form of equation (2a) represents Fresnel diffraction loss over an obstacle and would be applied to clutter categories such as buildings. In particular urban clutter would be of this type. Equation (2b) repres

36、ents the height gain function due to the proximity of the ground in more open locations. Where specular ground reflection occurs this is typical of signal variations below the first two-ray interference maximum. Where specular reflection does not occur the variations below R are typical of those due

37、 to shadowing by minor objects and irregularities. 3.2 Statistical clutter loss model for terrestrial paths This section gives equations that gives a statistical distribution of clutter loss. The model can be applied for urban and suburban clutter loss modelling. An additional loss, Lctt, is calcula

38、ted which can be added to the transmission loss or basic transmission loss. Clutter loss will vary depending on clutter type, location within the clutter and movement in the clutter. If the transmission loss or basic transmission loss has been calculated using a model (e.g. Recommendation ITU-R P.14

39、11) that inherently accounts for clutter over the entire path then the method below should not be applied. Frequency range: 2 to 67 GHz Minimum path length: 0.25 km (for the correction to be applied at only one end of the path) 1.0 km (for the correction to be applied at both ends of the path) Perce
