description | Signal attenuation caused by duststorm is one of the
major problems in utilization of microwave bands for
terrestrial and space communication especially at
desert and semi desert area. This paper presented a
mathematical model developed to predict the
microwave signal attenuation due to duststorm. The
proposed model enables the convenient calculation of
the microwave signal path attenuation which relates
visibility, frequency, particle size and complex
permittivity of duststorm. The predicted values from
the mathematical model are compared with the
measured values observed in Sudan and Saudi Arabia
shows relatively close agreement. |
