Abstract
This paper presents a narrowband statistical analysis of the field distribu tion inside a road tunnel. Both fu;ed and mobile antennas are situated insi de the tunnel and the transmitting frequency is 2.1 GHz. A theoretical prop agation model based on the image theory is first used and the results are t hen compared to those obtained from experiments carried out either in an em pty tunnel or in presence of traffic.
