ITU-R PN.681-1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R PN.681-1* PROPAGATION DATA REQUIRED FOR THE DESIGN OF EARTH-SPACE LAND MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEMS (Question ITU-R 207/3) (1990- 1993) The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering that for the proper plann

4、e adopted for use in the planning of Earth-space land mobile 1. telecommunications systems, in addition to the methods recommended in Recommendation ITU-R PN.618. ANNEX 1 1. Introduction Propagation effects in the land mobile-satellite service (LMSS) differ from those of the fixed-satellite service

5、(FSS) primarily because of the greater importance of terrain effects. In the FSS it is generally possible to discriminate against multipath, shadowing and blockage through the use of highly directive antennas placed at unobstructed sites. Therefore, in general, the LMSS offers smaller link availabil

6、ity percentages than the FSS. The prime availability range of interest to system designers is usually from 80% to 99%. This Annex deals with data and models specifically needed for predicting propagation impairments in LMSS links, which include tropospheric effects, ionospheric effects, multipath, b

7、lockage and shadowing. It is based on measurements at 1.5 GHz (L-band) and 870 MHz in the UHF band. 2. Tropospheric effects 2. I Attenuation Signal losses in the troposphere are caused by atmospheric gases, rain, fog and clouds. Except at low elevation angles, tropospheric attenuation is negligible

8、at frequencies below about 1 GHz, and is generally small at frequencies up to about 10 GHz. Above 10 GHz, the attenuation can be large for significant percentages of the time on many paths. Prediction methods are available for estimating gaseous absorption (Recommendation IT-R PN.676) and rain atten

9、uation (Recommendation ITU-R PN.618). Fog and cloud attenuation is usually negligible for frequencies up to 1 O GHz. * This Recommendation should be brought to the attention of Radiocommunication Study Group 8.

Shadowing 4.1 Empirical roadside shadowing model Cumulative 1.5 GHz fade distribution measurements have given rise to the empirical roadside shadowing

14、model. The extent of trees along the roadside is represented by the percentage of optical shadowing caused by roadside trees at a path elevation angle of 45“ in the direction of the signal source. The model is valid when this percentage is in the range 55-75%. for 200 I e I 600 1% I p 5 20% where: A

16、OPYRIGHT International Telecommunications Union/ITU RadiocommunicationsLicensed by Information Handling Services360 Rec. ITU-R PN.681-1 The empirical roadside model corresponds to an average propagation condition with the vehicle driving on lanes both sides of the highway (lanes close to and far fro

17、m roadside trees are included). The model applies to highways and rural roads where the overall aspect of the propagation path is, for the most part, orthogonal to the lines of roadside trees and utility poles and it is assumed that the dominant cause of LMSS signal attenuation is canopy shadowing (

18、see Recommendation ITU-R PN.833). Figure 1 shows plots of fade exceeded versus the path elevation angle for several constant percentages, p.

Fade duration measurements have given rise to the following empirical model which is valid for distance fade duration dd 2 0.02 m. where P(FD dd I A A,) represents the probability that the distance fade duratio

24、n, FD, exceeds the distance, dd m, under the condition that the attenuation, A, exceeds A,. The designation “eff represents the error function, d is the standard deviation of ln(dd), and in(a) is the mean value of In(dd). The left-hand side of equation (3) was estimated by computing the percentage n

25、umber of “duration events” that exceed dd relative to the total number of events for which A Aq in data obtained from measurements in the United States of America and Australia. The best fit regression values obtained from these measurements are a = 0.22 and o = 1.215. Figure 2 contains a plot of p,

26、 expressed as a percentage, versus dd for a 5 dB threshold. 4.4 Non-fade duration distribution model A “non-fade duration” event of distance duration, dd, is defined as the distance over which the fade levels are smaller than a specified fade threshold. The non-fade duration model is given by: where

27、 P(NFD dd I A c As) is the percentage probability that a continuous non-fade distance, NFD, exceeds the distance, dd, given that the fade is smaller than the threshold, A,.

Degradation to the signal can still occur under these circums
