2.45 GHz near ground path loss and spatial correlation for open indoor and snowy terrain

© 2015 IEEE. This paper characterizes path loss and spatial correlation for near ground channels in an open indoor and snowy terrain. The study is based on conducting extensive measurements at 2.45GHz frequency range for Line-of-sight scenarios. The index of reflection of log-distance path-loss is evaluated. The impact of antenna height, and transmitter-receiver distance on pathloss and spatial correlation is investigated
