This propagation model is described in Recommendation ITU-R P.1546-1 Annex 8, which was developed based on the prior model in Recommendation ITU-R P.370. This is a propagation model for point-to-area prediction of field strength for the broadcasting, land mobile, maritime mobile and certain fixed services (e.g. those employing point-to-multipoint systems) in the frequency range 30 to 3000 MHz and for the distance range 1 km to 1000 km. The model provided in Recommendation ITU-R P.1546-1 should be used in the frequency range (30 to 3 000 MHz) and the same distance range (1 km to 1 000 km). The Land curves are implemented only. The sea curves or the mixed sea-land path are not implemented.
