This paper presents the characteristics of large-scale fading in a tunnel environment. The Ray-Launching Method has been used to analyze the characteristics of the tunnel. For a curved tunnel, The concept of RDN (Ray Density Normalization) is introduced in order to obtain more accurate results. For our purposes, the structure of tunnel is assumed to be either a straight or curved tunnel having rectangular cross-section. A large scale fading has been presented shown in several tunnel cases.

In high frequency environment such as microcell, it is requried to adopt a new method different from the empirical channel modeling applied in macrocell. In this thesis, measurement for residential area in Sinrimdong and the result of the simulation are compared and analyzed. Simulation technique utilizes 3D ray launching method to consider some factors which were not included in the ray tracing method. Propagation environment in the urban area shows the typical channel characterisitics of the propagation environment. Using 3D ray launching method, pathloss of the wave and delay characteristics of the signal with respect to the height of the transmitter is researched. If the transmitter is located on the top of the building, radiowave experiences diffraction on the rooftop and it influences the total received signal strength.

This paper presents a new 3-D ray tracing technique based on the image theory with newly defined ray tubes. The proposed method can be applied to indoor environments with arbitrary building layouts and has high computational efficiency compared to the precedent methods resorting to the ray launching scheme. It predictions are in good agreement with the measurements.

In this paper, we have developed a propagation loss prediction software with GUI (Graphic User Interface) functions, based on the geometrical ray optics model, which can predict radio parameters for the deployment of wireless indoor network. The program has two numerical modules consisted with electrical image and ray launching methods to implement UTD theory. The simulated results are compared with reported data measured in the foreign building environments for office and '一' type corridor, and measured and simulated results for the propagation loss agree with each other quite well. Simulation results for '一' type corridor and 'T' type corridor propagation environment are shown for reference.

in urban cross-roads with dense buildings, receiving power and delay spread were computed when doing these, we were able to develope codes to be executed in a very fast time by combining image method and algorithm for propagation paths compairing with ray launching technique. And receiving power and delay spread could be viewed in 3-dimensional picture by virtue of computing electric fields in arbitrary receiving point. For numerical computation, receiving power of wide and anrrow band and delay spread were computed, and extension method of ray numbers was facilitated for handling infinite number of rays.

The research deals with the prediction and the measurement of electromagnetic wave propagation in rectangular shaped tunnels at f=2.65 GHz. The received power level was measured in the straight and the curved tunnel by using a spectrum analyzer and Satellite DMB mobile phone. Thus we have gotten the data for two cases, the straight and the curved tunnel whose radius is 300m. In addition, the prediction of wave propagation was conducted based on the ray-launching method, in same tunnel where measurement was performed. A good agreement of the measured and the predicted path loss could be confirmed. The measured path loss shows a marked difference in propagation loss: the path-loss exponent, 3.21, and 3.98, for a straight and a curved tunnel, respectively. The reason that path-loss exponent is high in a curved tunnel is that there is no direct wave but only the reflected waves, which attenuates rapidly with distance due to multiple reflections. Also the predicted path loss shows path loss exeponent, 3.2 and 3.95, for a straight and a curved tunnel which are similar to the simulation results.

The role of UCAV is to carry out various missions in hostile situations such as penetration and attack on the enemy territory. To this end, application of RF stealth technology is indispensable so as not to be caught by enemy radar. The X-47B UCAV with blended wing body configuration is a representative aircraft in which modern RCS reduction schemes are heavily applied. In this study, a model UCAV was first designed based on the X-47B platform and then an extensive RCS analysis was conducted to the model UCAV in the high-frequency regime using the Ray Launching Geometrical Optics (RL-GO) method. In particular, the effects of configuration of UCAV considering IR reduction on RCS were investigated. Finally, the effects of RAM optimized for the air intake of the model UCAV were analyzed.

The point spread function (PSF) of an optical system is in general defined as a two-dimensional intensity distribution which results from a single point source at infinity. It is an important key for the evaluation of the optical performance of an astronomical telescope. The PSFs of the soft X-ray telescope (SXT) aboard Yohkoh were measured in a wide range of the field-of-view under the in-flight configuration at White Sands Missile Range prior to launching the satellite. It has been known that the SXT PSF has a sharp peak at the core and the intensity drops very fast as it goes distant from the center. Due to the combination of this sharp peak at the PSF core and the effect of undersampling by a large pixel size, a carefully designed method is requested in the examination of the PSF data. The pattern of the SXT PSF is determined by the fitting of a mathematical functional form to the pre-launch experimental data. The elliptical Moffat function has been adopted for the evaluation of the SXT PSF. It is revealed from our study that the SXT PSF shows a peculiar characteristics, and thus a careful consideration on the undersampling effect and also a proper choice of statistics are necessary for the determination of the best fit function of the PSF. Details on the on- and off-axis SXT PSF in the field-of-view will be introduced and discussed in our presentation.

This paper proposes a propagation prediction model which can calculate a propagation path loss easily at option point in case of the propagation processing by repeat reflection when we analysis a propagation route, it makes the calculation speed which is the defect of a geometrical of image method and a ray-launching method improve and we develop and apply the algorithms which can do an angle of incidence, an angle of reflection with a propagation direct path, a reflection path and a maximum reflection number arithmetic process synchronously. Finally we choose as a sample which is the real road condition where is around SK telecoms chunnam branch office in wolgok-dong, kwangsan-ku, kwangju and simulate proposition model then we demonstrate the relative superiority with comparing the results.
