Wireless Communication Performance Testing: From Laboratory Environment to Research Vessel

This study investigates signal transmission within a shared spectrum, focusing on measurements conducted both in laboratory and outdoor environments. The objective was to demonstrate how laboratory objects obstructing the line of sight can attenuate the signal between a transmitter (Tx) and a receiver (Rx). Additionally, we examined the impact of distance and placement in various locations aboard an electric research boat on signal transmission efficiency. These findings contribute to understanding whether the environmental factors influence wireless communication in dynamic and obstructed environments.
