This paper begins with a discussion of multipath interference. The spatial description of the field impinging upon a mobile radio antenna is derived and the power spectrum and other properties of the signal envelope are considered. Next, large scale variations of the average signal are discussed. Measurements of observed attenuation on mobile paths over both smooth and irregular terrain are summarized. The paper concludes with a discussion of methods of predicting the area of coverage from a base station.
