unobstructed field of view


Explanation:
This is a guess based on the elements of this compound word - sense of place/direction + visibility/perceptibility/state of being conspicuous + the mention of freedom from interference.

The antenna would presumalby need a clear line of sight - LOS, her for reception/transmission & freedom from any sources of interference to be able to perform successfully.

Alternatively, just - clear Line of Sight (LOS).

Maybe there is a typo here and the term should be "stedsans- "sense of locality/sense of direction" without the "d" - it shouldn't make a difference in normal flowing speech and an easy enough error to make. So that might be one possibility too.
