Original Abstract

The deployment of wireless systems in millimeter wave relies on a thorough understanding of electromagnetic wave propagation under various weather conditions and scenarios. In this study, we characterize millimeter wave propagation effects from measurement data, utilizing channel impulse response analysis with a focus on root mean square delay spread and Rician K-factor. The obtained results highlight the significant influence of weather conditions and foliage on propagation, including diffuse reflection, scattering, and absorption. Particularly, we observed a notable increase in scattering from deciduous trees with leaves, in comparison with bare trees or ones covered by snow or ice. The attenuation of the signal propagated through a tree with foliage is 2.16 dB/m higher compared to a bare tree. Our validation measurements within a semi-anechoic chamber confirmed these observations and aided in quantifying the differences. These findings offer valuable insights into the dynamics of millimeter-wave signals that are important for advancing wireless communication technologies.
