Abstract :
A survey on short distance attenuations of MF, HF, and VHF radio waves a few meters above the ground surface has been carried out to find empiric reliable average attenuation laws, with their standard deviation. The results can be used to predict the ranges of communication systems placed near the ground and to fix the limits for the allowable interference fields produced by industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) equipment.
