In order to develop and analyze reliable communications links for unmanned aerial vehicles
(UAVs), accurate models for the propagation channel are required. The radio channel
properties in the urban scenario are different from those in the suburb scenario and open
area due to so many scattering paths from office buildings, especially when the UAV flies in
the low altitude. We took some measurement campaigns on the campus of Tsinghua

In order to develop and analyze reliable communications links for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), accurate models for the propagation channel are required. The radio channel properties in the urban scenario are different from those in the suburb scenario and open area due to so many scattering paths from office buildings, especially when the UAV flies in the low altitude. We took some measurement campaigns on the campus of Tsinghua University with crowded apartments and office buildings. Based on the measurement result we extract the main parameters of pathloss model, and propose a simplified Saleh-Valenzuela (SV) model with specific parameters. The typical scenario of grass lawn is compared with the office buildings in the analysis of K-factor and root-mean-square (RMS) delay spread.
