Abstract :
Field trials have confirmed that propagation is characterised by a fourth-power law relating median transmission loss to range. Excess losses due to buildings are about 29 dB at 168 MHz and 37 dB at 445 MHz. These values are greater than those measured in smaller cities, but similar to earlier measurements in New York.
