Name	Type	Description
TwoRayInterference	compound module	Path loss model that accounts for interference between direct and ground-reflected signal paths. Considers phase differences, polarization effects (horizontal or vertical), and ground permittivity to accurately model constructive and destructive interference patterns, yielding a more accurate approximation than ~TwoRayGroundReflection even on short distances.
