Use of cell-site diversity in millimeter-wave fixed cellular systems to combat the effects of rain attenuation
2002
IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications
An examination of potential advantages of cell-site diversity with selection combining in the context of mm-wave fixed cellular systems is reported. The study involved simulation of converging radio links over weather radar images of the radar reflectivity factor, from which the specific attenuation of rain at 30 GHz was derived. The average correlation of attenuation on two converging links as a function of their angular separation is shown to indicate the potential benefits in the use of
