Abstract

An extensive measurement campaign was carried out in the fall of 2004 to characterize the EHF SATCOM on-the-move (OTM) channel. Although the measurement locations included many types of terrain and covered a large geographical area, the elevation angle to the satellite was essentially the same throughout the campaign. In this paper we use a 3-D model to extend the results of our previous campaign for arbitrary satellite locations.
