Sites and Antennas
The antenna is mounted on the roof of a moving car at a height of 1.8 m. The database for this time-dependent moving car is defined in WallMan. The antenna is an omnidirectional antenna at 3.4 GHz.
Computational Method

Results
The results are computed for six timestamps in this model, from 0 s to 6 s in steps of 1 s. Results for different time steps can be viewed in the Edit toolbar from the Floor Levels above Ground drop-down list.
