Calibración, pérdidas de propagación, propagación, trazado de rayos.Resumen
En este artículo se investiga el efecto que produce la optimización de los valores de permitividad para calles, paredes y techos de edificios, con relación a la precisión en la estimación de las pérdidas de propagación en un entorno exterior andino utilizando la técnica de trazado de rayos en 3D.Para obtener un modelo viable del escenario tridimensional, es generalizado tomar los valores de sus propiedades desde investigaciones realizadas por otros autores, en donde se caracterizan materiales típicos de otras ciudades, y a menudo la banda de frecuencias de operación no corresponde con la banda de frecuencias utilizadas en la caracterización. Para analizar la dependencia del valor de la pérdida de camino con respecto a la permitividad de los materiales, estimamos las pérdidas de propagación para diferentes valores de permitividad en los materiales y calculamos las estadísticas de error con respecto a medidas realizadas en el escenario COST de Cali (Colombia), típico de la región andina. Finalmente, optimizamos los valores de la permitividad y obtenemos un modelo del ambiente tridimensional que mejora el desempeño del trazado de rayos en la estimación de las pérdidas de propagación.Referencias
