[1] The novel and practical modified genetic algorithm (MGA)-autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model for forecasting real-time dynamic rain-induced attenuation has been established by combining genetic algorithm ideas with the ARIMA model. It is proved that due to the introduction of MGA into the ARIMA(1,1,7) model, the MGA-ARIMA model has the potential to be conveniently applied in every country or area by creating a parameter database used by the ARIMA (1,1,7) model. The parameter database is given in this paper based on attenuation data measured in Xi'an, China. The methods to create the parameter databases in other countries or areas are offered, too. Based on the experimental results, the MGA-ARIMA model has been proved practical for forecasting dynamic rain-induced attenuation in real time. The novel model given in this paper is significant for developing adaptive fade mitigation technologies at millimeter wave bands.

In this paper, a novel mutation operator of differential evolution algorithm is proposed. A new algorithm called divergence differential evolution algorithm (DDEA) is developed by combining the new mutation operator with divergence operator and assimilation operator (divergence operator divides population, and, assimilation operator combines population), which can detect multiple solutions and robustness in noisy environment. The new algorithm is applied to optimize Michalewicz Function and to track changing of rain-induced-attenuation process. The results based on DDEA are compared with those based on Differential Evolution Algorithm (DEA). It shows that DDEA algorithm gets better results than DEA does in the same premise. The new algorithm is significant for optimizing and tracking the characteristics of MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) channel at millimeter waves.
