Abstract

This paper presents the findings of radio wave characterization based on the measurement data at 5.8 GHz. The measurement data were collected by a testbed channel, which links with the following scenarios: a single tree, a row of trees, a row of trees and a road, a row of trees, a road, and a building. These experiments were conducted at University Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) Skudai, Johor to represent the suburban environment. The links consist of pairs of transmitting and receiving antennas that deploy the path of a line of sight (LOS) and non-line of sight (NLOS) radio propagation wave networks. Based on the measurement data analysis, the general issue concerning the statistical probability distribution and the characteristics of LOS and NLOS are examined and discussed. Note that 5.8 GHz technology can be used in both LOS and NLOS scenarios, but its performance varies based on the presence of obstacles and signal propagation characteristics. Other prominent experimental analysis methods, such as hypothesis testing and goodness of fit tests, are implemented to consolidate the findings. The analysis found that the empirical probability density function of LOS and NLOS channels follows Gaussian, Rayleigh, and Rician distribution. Predicting specific future technological developments, such as the availability of 5.8 GHz technology, is challenging because it depends on various factors, including research and development efforts, regulatory decisions, market demand, and technological advancements.
