ITU-R P.2001-2 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R P.2001-2 A general purpose wide-range terrestrial propagation model in the frequency range 30 MHz to 50 GHz (2012-2013-2015) Scope This Recommendation contains a genera
9、l purpose wide-range model for terrestrial propagation which predicts path loss due to both signal enhancements and fading over effectively the range from 0% to 100% of an average year. This makes the model particularly suitable for Monte-Carlo methods, and studies in which it is desirable to use th
10、e same propagation model, with no discontinuities in its output, for signals which may be either wanted or potentially interfering. The model covers the frequency range from 30 MHz to 50 GHz, and distances from 3 km to at least 1 000 km. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that to su
11、pport efficient use of the radio spectrum there is a need for sharing studies in which the variability of both wanted and potentially interfering signal levels should be taken into account; b) that to plan high-performance radio systems the prediction of signal-level variability must include the sma
12、ll-probability tails of both fading and enhancement distributions; c) that Monte-Carlo simulations are useful for spectrum-planning purposes, noting a) that Recommendation ITU-R P.528 provides guidance on the prediction of point-to-area path loss for the aeronautical mobile service for the frequency
13、 range 125 MHz to 30 GHz and the distance range up to 1 800 km; b) that Recommendation ITU-R P.452 provides guidance on the detailed evaluation of microwave interference between stations on the surface of the Earth at frequencies above about 0.7 GHz; c) that Recommendation ITU-R P.617 provides guida

17、via the ionosphere, 2 Rec. ITU-R P.2001-2 recommends that the procedure given in the Annex be used for sharing studies over the full range of signal variability, including the small-probability tails for fading and enhancement, and for Monte-Carlo simulations. Annex Wide-range propagation model Desc
18、ription of the calculation method 1 Introduction This Recommendation describes a radio-wave propagation method for terrestrial paths. It has a wide range of applicability in frequency, distance, and percentage time. In particular, it predicts both fading and enhancements of signal level. It is thus
19、particularly suitable for Monte-Carlo simulations. Attachment J describes the structure of the model, and in particular how results representing different propagation mechanisms are combined. 1.1 Applicability The range of applicability is as follows: Frequency: 30 MHz to 50 GHz. Distance: The model
20、 is believed to be most accurate from about 3 km to 1 000 km. At shorter distances, the effect of clutter (buildings, trees, etc.) will tend to dominate unless the antenna heights are high enough to given an unobstructed path. There is no specific lower limit, although the path length must be greate
21、r than zero. A prediction of basic transmission loss less than 20 dB should be considered unreliable. Similarly, there is no specific maximum distance. Percentage time: The method predicts the basic transmission loss not exceeded for a given percentage of an average year. Any percentage time can be
22、used as an input to the model in the range 0% to 100%. This is limited in a progressive manner within the method such that the time used in the model varies from 0.00001% to 99.99999%. This internal limitation has no significant effect from 0.001% to 99.999% time. Antenna heights: Antennas heights a
23、bove ground level must be greater than zero. There is no specific maximum height above ground. The method is believed to be reliable for antenna altitudes up to 8 000 m above sea level. 1.2 Reciprocity, and the designation of terminals The terms “transmitting antenna” and “receiving antenna”, or mor
24、e briefly just “transmitter” and “receiver”, are used to distinguish the two terminals. This is convenient for the purposes of description. Rec. ITU-R P.2001-2 3 The method, however, is symmetrical. Which terminal is designated the “transmitter” makes no difference to the result. By convention the “
25、transmitter” is at the start of the terrain profile. 1.3 Iteration Some parts of the method require iterative calculations. Explicit iteration procedures are described which have been found to be efficient and stable. However, these are not necessarily optimal. Other iterative methods can be used if
26、 they are shown to give very similar results. 1.4 Organization of the Recommendation The inputs, and the symbols used to denote them, are described in 2. Preliminary calculations, including obtaining various radio-climatic parameters, are described in 3. Climatic parameters, and values derived from
27、the inputs, are listed in approximately alphabetical order of their symbols in Table 3.1. Many of these parameters are used in more than one place in the overall method, and all symbols in Table 3.1 are unique within this Recommendation. Section 4 describes the four main sub-models into which the me
28、thod is divided. The following subsections describe the calculation of these sub-models, most of which apply to a group of propagation mechanisms. These descriptions refer extensively to appendices which define various blocks of calculation. The sub-models in the wide-range propagation model (WRPM)
29、are independent of each other and each calculates results over the range 0% to 100%. Section 5 describes how the final prediction is obtained by combining results from the four main sub-models. The combination method takes account of the statistical correlation properties between the sub-models. Two
30、 alternative methods are given. One is appropriate when a direct calculation of the overall basic transmission loss is required for a given value of time percentage. This method involves an approximate treatment of uncorrelated statistics. The second method is appropriate when the WRPM is used withi
31、n a Monte-Carlo simulator. In this case, the uncorrelated statistics can be modelled more accurately by combining the sub-models within the Monte-Carlo method. 1.5 Style of description The method is described in a step-by-step manner, that is, expressions are given in the order in which they should
32、be evaluated. Equations are sometimes followed by a “where”, but this is limited to a few lines. Long lists of “where”s are avoided. Symbols appearing within the Appendices and which do not appear in Table 3.1 should be considered re-usable. They are defined close to where they are used, or cross-re
33、ferenced if appropriate. Logarithms are to the base 10 by default. That is, log(x) = log10(x). Natural logarithms where used are indicated as ln(x) = loge(x). 2 Inputs The inputs to the model consist of a terrain profile, described in 2.1, and other inputs described in 2.2. 2.1 Terrain profile A ter
34、rain profile giving heights above sea level of the Earths surface, whether land or water, at points along the great-circle radio path, must be available. Information is also required on the 4 Rec. ITU-R P.2001-2 distances over sea or a large body of water, and over low-lying coastal land or areas wi
35、th many lakes, according to the zones defined in Attachment D, D.1. In principle, the terrain profile consists of arrays each having the same number of values, n, as follows: di: distance from transmitter of i-th profile point (km) (2.1a) hi: height of i-th profile point above sea level (m) (2.1b) w
36、here: i: 1, 2, 3 . n = index of the profile point n: number of profile points. It is convenient to define an additional array holding zone codes as part of the profile: zi: zone code at distance di from transmitter (2.1c) where the z values are codes representing the zones in Table D.1. The profile
37、points must be spaced at equal intervals of distance. Thus d1 = 0 km, and dn = d km where d is the overall length of the path. Similarly, di = (i 1) d / (n 1) km. It is immaterial whether an array di is populated with distances, or whether di is calculated when needed. There must be at least one int
38、ermediate profile point between the transmitter and the receiver. Thus n must satisfy n 3. Such a small number of points is appropriate only for short paths, less than of the order of 1 km. Only general guidance can be given as to the appropriate profile spacing. Typical practice is a spacing in the
39、 range 50 to 250 m, depending on the source data and the nature of terrain. However, it is stressed that equally-spaced points should be included for the complete path, even where it passes over water. Expressions in this method assume that this is so. For instance, it is not acceptable to have zero
40、-height points only at the start and end of a section over sea when the length of the section exceeds the point spacing. Horizon points must be located taking Earth curvature into account, and omitting points in such a manner could result in the misinterpretation of a profile. 2.2 Other inputs Table
