Abstract :
The Finite Element Method (FEM) simulation of the scattering of a Transverse Electric (TE) mode frequency domain electromagnetic plane wave within VHF range over models for coastal and inland regions is presented. The amplitude of the electric field on the different media for each model and the effects these media on electromagnetic propagation are analysed. Presented results show signal attenuation at coastal regions, both urban and non urban.
