Summary:
Experimental results of radio path loss measured at 5.8 GHz in seaport are presented. Results show that within a range of more than 10km, the radio signal attenuates at a rate close to that of the free space and when higher base antenna is used, the attenuation rate approaches that of the free space more. Based on the measured data, a simple path loss model is developed. This study is helpful to deploy WiMAX systems for seaport users.
