PROJECT: Ray trace based model for micro- and millimeter-wave propagation through vegetation
ACRONYM: Ray-BaM
MAIN OBJECTIVE: To increase the knowledge of the research group on the propagation of radio waves through vegetation;
To build up the existing model range for radiowave propagation through vegetation with a novel ray tracing approach;
To find strategies to effectively characterise the vegetation in terms of radiowave propagation parameters and to find techniques to infer these parameters from the characteristics of the vegetation;
To find methods suitable for the characterisation of the dynamic effects inherent in the radiopath when wind is present;
To develop a model capable of dealing with various kinds of forests (both homogenous and inhomogeneous) and capable of being integrated with other propagation prediction tools;
To assess the behaviour of the proposed models base on comparison with actual measurement performed in various environments.
