Path-Loss Statistical Model for Urban Mobile Backhauling at mm-frequencies

In order to meet the unceasing demand for greater data-rates, future cellular network will be deployed according to heterogeneous layouts, with traditional macro-cellular sites acting as umbrella for a multitude of underlain micro-cells. Backhauling communications will likely rely on point-to-point wireless links not always in clear line of sight. A path loss model for urban backhauling at mmfrequencies is presented in this work, based on a Monte Carlo approach applied to a proper statistical description of the environment.
