Abstract

In this study, reflection effects of the sea in the GSM networks are described. In the GSM networks, especially some BTSs (Base Station Transceiver) have to be designed near the sea so some radio waves propogates uncontrolly from BTS and these waves propogates far away via the sea. This situation is not prefereed for GSM cell planner. In this study, two BTSs which are located Black Sea in Turkey are researched (about 97 km from eachother). Normally, although these two BTSs are not neighbour eachother but drive test shows that BTS1's signal influences BTS2's signals. This abnormal situaiton was determined with drive tests and finally, some suggesitons were offered.
