Multipath profile

The Multipath Profile enables you to determine RF environmental conditions of testing area. It
indicates the amount of power of the dominant pilot signal that is dispersed outside the main
correlation peak due to multipath echoes that are expressed in dB. This value should be very small
ideally.
The multipath profile is the result of portions of the original broadcast signal arriving at the receiving
antenna out of phase. This can be caused by the signal being reflected off objects such as buildings,
or being refracted through the atmosphere differently from the main signal.
