Over Land Electromagnetic Wave Propagation Modeling Study
Abstract
For this project, we will investigate the applicability of the Navy#s atmospherics-based propagation models to accurately predict radiofrequency propagation in land-based environments. Existing Navy propagation models have been shown at times to provide an unacceptable level of error in these environments. We will examine correlations between atmospheric and other propagation conditions with radiofrequency propagation event data that will be obtained using the University of Utah#s POWDER (Platform for Open Wireless Data-driven Experimental Research). Our objective is to isolate the propagation conditions that lead to the inaccuracies predicted by current Navy radiofrequency propagation models. Additionally, we will develop recommendations for areas where improvements in modeling are needed.
