  • Abstract
    This paper presents an outdoor-to-aircraft measurement campaign conducted inside a long range Airbus A340-300 aircraft. The attenuation induced by the hull of the aircraft for various operational frequencies is determined and these results are utilized to perform interference studies and assess whether the aircraft mobile terminal interferes to the ground base station and the opposite.
