Effects of buildings and trees on satellite mobile communications

Abstract: A propagation model for lossy building with tree attenuation in urban and residential areas is developed for satellite mobile communications. This model is used to characterize the signal transmitted from medium earth orbit (MEO) satellite when there are buildings and trees in the path of the signal. The analysis is performed using the uniform theory of diffraction (UTD). The tree attenuation is evaluated through the modified exponential decay model (MED).The normalized signal level and signal attenuation rate… Show more

“…The distribution function of the fading channel was found to be Rician [8], [9], [10] for cellular communications. The uniform theory of diffraction was applied to calculate the path loss in the presence of lossy trees and buildings for satellite mobile communications [11]. An empirical model was used to represent the propagation loss associated with near ground communications in a tropical forest [12].…”
