Abstract :
In this paper, a Single Frequency Network (SFN) broadcast propagation channel is characterized using measurements performed at a suburban region with two synchronized transmitters a mobile receiver unit. The path loss gain and improvement associated to the SFN scheme is obtained, as well as the multipath channel parameters, including the mean and r.m.s. delay spread.
