LOS , Near LOS and Non LOS


LOS , Near LOS and Non LOS

LOS  :   LOS means line of sight , line of sight in radio communication refers to the condition where minimum 60% of first Fresnel zone (refer to Fresnel zone in blog ) is clear, In modern radio communication systems operating above the 2.4 Ghz frequency requires clear LOS. 

Near LOS  :   Near Los means near line of sight , it refers to the condition in radio communication where a straight line from Site A to Site B is unobstructed but 60% of first Fresnel zone is not clear .
Wimax technology (refer Wimax Technology in blog) if developed to combat the interference occurred due to the near LOS reflection.


Non LOS  :   Non LOS means non line of sight , it refers to the condition where Fresnel zone is completely obstructed . this condition is avoided in modern microwave radio communications.

Non LOS communication can take place in low frequencies, nowadays very less in commercial use because of throughput requirement .
