  • Abstract
    Portable UHF factory multipath measurement apparatus is being used to measure multipath delay profiles and narrowband fading at five large manufacturing sites in the mid-western US. Preliminary data indicate that typical RMS delay spreads range from 100 to 250 ns and that average CW path loss varies as distance to the power 2-2. This work is the first report of extensive multipath measurements in factory environments.
