The performance of the antennas, a vertical dipole and microstrip antenna, is evaluated by calculating and measuring the average field strength in the coverage area. The image theory and the two-slope propagation model are used to calculate the field strength. The received average field strength for a vertical dipole prototype and a microstrip prototype is measured as a function of distance to the microcell antenna and position to the walls. It is concluded that the vertical dipole antenna with polarisation parallel to the mounting wall has the best performance to obtain canyon street coverage.","PeriodicalId":335954,"journal":{"name":"VTC '98. 48th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference.

We have proposed a robust resource allocation protocol to utilize the multiple parallel packet channels to support mixes of multirate traffic. The protocol incorporates a spectrally efficient accessing scheme and across-cell resource sharing technique to effectively multiplex multi-rate packet transmission. The protocol simplifies the network setup and system operation and at the same time reduce the system call blocking and dropping probabilities for all different rate classes of mobiles and has very high channel utilization efficiency. In this paper, we study the effectiveness of the protocol when the channel is subject to Rayleigh fading. We study a scenario when the mobile is downloading a number of media objects and compare the delay performance with the single packet channel. Analytical results indicate that the performance of the protocol is highly dependent on the Doppler frequency and the fading margin and significant gain in the system performance can be achieved for a given set of channel conditions and Doppler frequencies.","PeriodicalId":335954,"journal":{"name":"VTC '98. 48th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference.

In order to investigate the possibility of a high transmission rate in indoor radio channels, we adopted a circularly polarized antenna in the indoor field tests under line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) environments. We analyzed the effects of both human motions and transmission antenna heights. From the indoor field tests, it was found that amplitude deviation within the frequency bandwidth should be improved by circularly polarized waves under LOS conditions, due to removing the reflected wave with an odd number. Also it has been found that there exists an improvement of the amplitude deviation with polarization diversity reception under an NLOS environment. In addition, for the case where the transmission antenna height is changed up to the ceiling height, it has been found that there should be improvement of the wideband amplitude deviation for the high speed transmission system, using polarization diversity.","PeriodicalId":335954,"journal":{"name":"VTC '98. 48th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference.
