Abstract :
Site attenuation is a measure of performance of an open test site at frequencies below about 1 GHz. These sites typically consist of a large obstruction-free ground plane and the hemisphere above it. Calculations of site attenuation are presented which provide a reference for measurements made on a 30-by 60-m wire-mesh ground screen. Measured data are compared to the calculated results.
