Abstract :
The spatial variability of the VHF/UHF field strength in an Urban environment is investigated using data obtained in The Hague from simultaneous measurements of signals transmitted from two base stations. It is shown that the spatial autocorrelation function of the (log)-normal component of the field strength can be modelled as bi-Markovian. The cross correlation function between the (log)-normal components of signals associated with two different base stations is also presented
