RADIO ZONE DESIGN USING VISIBILITY ESTIMATION FOR LOCAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS IN METROPOLITAN AREAS

摘要

In densely built-up metropolitan areas, line-of-sight propagation path visibility is one of the most important design factors for radio local distribution systems. This paper proposes a radio zone design using a visibility estimation based on a building distribution model. The method validity is confirmed by practical field examinations. The concept of radio zone construction for multiple nodal operations in Japan is described.
