Modeling of the Land Mobile Satellite Channel considering the Terminal’s Driving Direction

Figure 10

The bad state probability (service unavailability) for urban (a) and suburban (b) environment. The dependency on the azimuth angle (relative to driving direction) is shown for satellites at different elevation angles. For an elevation of also the result of ignoring the heading is plotted as a constant (red line).

(a) Urban environment

(b) Suburban environment
