| Abstract | Both terrain contour and human-made structures strongly affect the received mobile radio signal strength. But it is difficult to separate the effects of the natural environment and human-made structures on the received data for two reasons: first, in a natural environment, the ground is never flat; second, human-made structures in each area are different. Finding the propagation characteristics, such as the intercept signal level at a given range (1 km or 1 mile away from the base station) and the slope of pathloss along the radio path, is a challenging task. This paper introduces a method that can separate the effects of human-made structures from that of the terrain contour with a high degree of confidence. The propagation characteristics differ for different areas, and the proper ones are used as valuable inputs to the propagation prediction software program. This paper also compares the theoretical shadow-loss and effective antenna height gain with the large amounts of measured data when a mobile is blocked or not blocked by terrain from the base station. Finally, this paper discusses a means of fine-tuning the propagation model on the terrain effect by feeding back the measured data. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
