Abstract :
Experimental results gathered from a measurements campaign conducted for a wireless sensor network, are analyzed in this paper. The scenario where this network is intended to operate is a combination of buildings and diverse vegetation species. Thus, standard conditions of propagation are determined, which are useful for simulations based on the Lee model. Comparison between simulation and measurement results shows relatively moderate deviations.
