Measurement Overview

System

Methodology

  • ・Two three-axis isotropic probes were mounted in the radome on the roof of the car.
  • ・The E-fields was measured by a spectrum analyzer with GPS data installed in the car.

Conditions

  • ・The measurement route was chosen mainly on national roads except for highways and covered all municipalities. The average driving speed at the time of measurement was approximately 20 km/h.
  • ・Measurements were taken automatically at approximately 5-second intervals while driving and when the car was stopped, the measurement was also stopped.

Post processing

  • ・The square root of the sum of the squares of the E-field measured in each band was calculated.
  • ・The E-field strength below the predetermined threshold (noise floor) was excluded when integrating within the band.
  • ・After that, E-fields of each band were averaged in Basic Grid Square※1
    • ※1 Basic Grid Square: Basic Grid Square provided by the Japanese government to divide the measurement area into a 1 km2 mesh. (more...)
