| Abstract | This paper presents continuous-wave power measurements conducted in forest terrain with a focus on path-loss in a device-to-device (D2D) communication scenario. The measurements are performed at 917.5 MHz with measurement ranges extending to more than 2.5 km, using a purpose-developed measurement system with a dynamic range of 180 dB. The impact of different antenna heights has been investigated by placing antennas at 1.5-, 2.5-, and 3.5-m elevation over the terrain. The measurements show that the antenna elevation in the given scenario has no significant impact on the received power. The measurements also show that the dominant path of propagation is through the foliage for the first approximately 1000 m, resulting in foliage excess loss being the dominant loss mechanism in this region. After approximately 1000 m, the measured received power tends to follow the fourth-power law, indicating that the dominant loss mechanism in this region is the distance-dependent path-loss. The measurement results have been compared to models proposed in the literature based on empirical data, as well as models proposed by ITU and COST. The comparison shows that only two models predicted the limit in the foliage excess loss in the measurement data. By applying these excess loss models in combination with path-loss models, it is possible to model the measured total path-loss with a root-mean-square error of less than 10 dB. This is achieved by either applying a model proposed by Tewari or a combination between the two-ray path-loss model and the ITU-R P.2108 clutter loss model. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
