Abstract

In this paper, path loss characteristics in a curved subway tunnel are measured and analyzed. The measurement is carried out in the frequency bands of 2.45GHz and 5.8GHz. A directional antenna is employed for transmission and an omnidirectional antenna for reception. This measurement is performed in the subway tunnel in the vicinity of the Daejon station. The tunnel is curved and its cross section is arch-shaped. The path loss is measured with the location of the transmitter antenna fixed and the receiver antenna moving in the tunnel. The measured path loss ratio is about 0.1dBm/m. Also, the signal received from the antenna located on the outer side of curve in the tunnel experiences weaker path loss.
