Estimation of coherent and incoherent radio frequency (RF) signal attenuation through foliage is of great importance for a number of radar and communication problems. At UHF band and higher frequencies foliage presents a complex environment for electromagnetic waves in terms of scattering and wave propagation. For most applications, dealing with complex foliage models that account for single an...

In this paper, two-dimensional percolation lattices are applied to describe wireless propagation environment, and stochastic rays are employed to model the trajectories of radio waves. We first derive the probability that a stochastic ray undergoes certain number of collisions at a specific spatial location. Three classes of stochastic rays with different constraint conditions are considered: s...

Ad hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks without a pre-installed infrastructure. Such networks are widely used in military applications and in emergency situations as they permit the establishment of a communication network at very short notice with a very low cost. Video is very sensitive for packet loss and wireless ad-hoc networks are error prone due to node mobility and weak links. H...

As the migration of wireless communication network from one generation to another continue, radio wave propagation model or path loss model plays a very significant role in achieving an optimum performance as well as suitability over different locations of interest. In this research, investigation of radio communication channel behavior based on practical measurement in the L-band frequency in ...
