CloseIn

Close-in propagation model

expand all in page

Description

Model the behavior of electromagnetic radiation from a point of transmission as it travels through urban macro cell scenarios[1]by using aCloseInobject. Close-in propagation models have no enforced frequency range.

Creation

Create aCloseInobject by using thepropagationModelfunction.

Properties

空间参考distance, specified as a scalar in meters.

Note

The close-in model is valid for distances greater than or equal to theReferenceDistance. Path loss is0for distances less thanReferenceDistance.

Data Types:double

Path loss exponent, specified as a scalar.

Data Types:double

Standard deviation of the zero-mean Gaussian random variable, specified as a scalar in decibels (dB).

Data Types:double

Number of data points of the zero-mean Gaussian random variable, specified as an integer.

Data Types:double

Object Functions

Open Live Script

Display the coverage area for a transmitter using the close-in propagation model.

pm = propagationModel("close-in"); tx = txsite("Name","Apple Hill","Latitude",42.3001,"Longitude",-71.3604); coverage(tx,pm)
