Abstract

In this paper, we conduct propagation measurements focusing on the radiation pattern and the polarization of base station antennas under the line of sight (LOS) and no LOS environments. We measured and investigated propagation characteristics inside them, and we confirmed that propagation characteristics inside passages depend on cross sectional shape and that attenuation coefficient is changed by the radiation pattern and the polarization of the base station antenna
