The range of powers of less than 1mW, and node separations of up to path-loss exponent and shadowing variance for indoor 30 meters are expected. Sensor nodes are battery and outdoor environment were determined. The range of operated, and thus are limited both in the total energy and these values roughly agree with those measured for higher instantanous peak current available. elevation antennas. Frequency selectivity of the RF channel was also characterized by means of determining The propagation conditions arising from this mode of average coherence bandwidth (CBW). It was observed communication have not been studied before to the best that there is a relationship between CBW and distance of knowledge of the authors. In order to optimize our between transmitting and receiving antennas. system performance, it is important to have a model for
