Abstract

Modern mining procedures aim to replace human resources directly involved in the mineral extraction process by automatic or remote control systems. Data may be collected from sensors, or data and/or video may be transmitted by telecommunication equipment. The actual technology trend is to do these transmissions using wireless technology (WSN, Wi-Fi, among others). This work summarizes the experience that has been collected from characterizing a Single-Input-Single-Output (SISO) large scale 870 MHz and 2.45 GHz wireless propagation channel in an underground copper mine. Also the Rician K factor and channel coherence time are calculated for a 2.45 GHz mobile link.
