WUCNs
 Wireless Underground
Communication Networks
 Security and monitoring
Tunnel Communication
 Wire-based or leaky coaxial cable
guided systems
 Signal Frequency
 Tunnel Shape and Size
 Position & polarization of transmitter
and receiver antenna.
 Tunnel wall makeup
 Temperature, pressure and humidity
of the air in the tunnel.
 Difficult signal propagation
environment
 Signal power attenuates very fast
near the transmitter, slows down
further.
 No/Small multipath
Tunnel Communication Solution
Special Intercom
APPLICATIONS ADVANTAGES
 CCTV cameras  Flexible
 User Interfaces  Easy and
 Flexible Networking inexpensive
 Integration
 Clear Speech
 Open Duplex
System Overview
