“…Note that the previous expression is more accurate than eq. (4) derived in [17]. In [17], it is considered that a 3D building does not block the link if the height at the center of the building does not block the vision, whereas in expression ( 8) it is considered the fact that LOS requires additionally that the faces of the 3D building do not block the vision.…”

Within the framework of 5G, blockage effects occurring in the mmWave band are critical. Previous works describe the effects of blockages in isolated and multiple links for simple blocking objects, modeled with mathematical tools such as stochastic geometry and random shape theory. Our study uses these tools to characterize a scenario with N links, including the possible correlation among them in terms of blocking for several models of blocking objects. We include numerical evaluations highlighting that assuming independence among the links' blocking elements is a too-brief simplification and does not accurately describe the real scenario. This paper also applies the formulation developed for the case of N links to optimize the relay positioning in mmWave cells for coverage enhancement, that is, to minimize the communication failure probability. We also show that both link budget and blockages affect the optimum positioning of the relays as they are both essential for successful transmission.
