چکیده

We describe and analyze adaptive antenna array technology to improve naval communications systems to beyond line-of-sight at microwave frequencies by using the ducting layer as a leaky waveguide and the adaptive array to resolve and coherently combine multipath in this layer.

Wide-band microwave propagation parameters using circular and linear polarized antennas for indoor wireless channels

This paper presents results of experiments using a variety of antennas inside several buildings. Path loss models are presented for the 1.3 GHz and 4.0 GHz bands, and indicate little difference in indoor path loss throughout the low-microwave region. Results show that line-of-sight (LOS) channels offer significantly more cross-polarization discrimination than obstructed (OBS) channels. A profou...
