Line of sight.
Place the terminal in an area as free from obstructions as possible in all
directions down to 15° below the horizon.
If obstructions cannot be avoided, place the receiver so that the
obstruction covers no more than 2° of the view from the terminal. To
obtain this, the distance between the obstruction and the terminal must be
minimum 29 x diameter of the obstruction.
Example:
The obstruction is a pole of 0.1 m diameter. This means the
terminal must be placed 29 x 0.1 m = 2.9 m from the obstruction.
