Abstract :
This paper presents a study based on field measurements on several equatorial foliage penetration phenomena in Singapore. The study includes short-range back scattering and propagation measurements in a very wide frequency band from 100 MHz to 1 GHz. The measurement setup and the data analysis are presented.
