Abstract
- This paper presents the results of the first propagation measurement campaign conducted in the 2.4 GHz industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band for low antenna heights in a North American boreal forest. The $2 \times 1$ multiple-input, single output measurements capture propagation conditions for wireless peer-to-peer or sensor networks in the boreal environment. Unlike many other forests, it is shown that ground reflections strongly influence large scale propagation for the low antenna boreal case. Results also indicate that scattering is severe but that both frequency diversity and multiple antenna techniques will be effective for mitigating and/or exploiting the fading caused by this scattering.
