SPECTS_Summary
A Physical statistical model based on GIS terrain incorporation, along with the computationally efficient simulations of the electromagnetic channel and interferences in fixed wireless links at mm-wavelengths, operating within sub-urban channels are presented. The ability for such predictions is highly demanded since it aids in the characterization, design and deployment of the pertinent networks. Massive measurement campaigns were conducted over several paths, for the purposes of modeling assessing. Since both the desired and interference links in a cellular structure attain a dominant signal, knowledge of the Rician and the carrier-to-interference ratio (CIR) distributions becomes an essential principle measure in determining performances of millmetric channels; hence they were used for model evaluation purposes.
