Propagation in road tunnels: from modeling to experiments

This paper describes a wideband analysis of the field distribution in a road tunnel, both the mobile and fixed antennas being situated inside the tunnel. The transmitting frequency is 2.1 GHz and predicted values obtained from a propagation model are compared to experimental results for various traffic conditions.
