Abstract

This paper focuses on one vital aspect in propagation characteristics inside subway tunnels: near shadowing phenomenon in a practical environment. In order to characterize this effect, an accurate measurement has been made at 2.4 GHz in a real environment in Madrid subway. By analyzing the numerical results in this measurement, the characteristic of near shadowing phenomenon in propagation process has been revealed and corresponding engineering suggestions have been given in order to compensate the near shadowing effect. Finally, statistical model including the depth, duration and length of near shadowing, fast fading and attenuation inside wide tunnel and narrow tunnel has been built and simulated.

Keywords: measurement modeling near shadowing propagation tunnel
