Path Loss Models for Air-to-Ground Radio Channels in Urban Environments

Abstract: Abstract-This paper provides new statistical models for air-toground channels in an urban environment. The model is derived to operate at frequencies from 200MHz to 5GHz. Issues such as path loss and shadowing are evaluated as a function of the elevation angle to the airborne platform, rather than the more usual separation distance used for terrestrial mobile communications. Results demonstrate the advantages of an airto-ground channel for urban communication, and relayed peerto-peer links in particular.

“…Authors in [18] extend the work in [16]- [17] to two UAVs, with and without interference. Based on the path loss models in [16] and [19], optimal altitude is reported in [18] for both maximum coverage and minimum required transmit power. Continuing to analyze altitude versus coverage radius relationship, in [20], the same team of authors address the deployment problem with coexistence between UAV and under laid Device-to-Device (D2D) communication networks.…”
