- Extension of the dRET Model to Include Scattering from Tree Trunks in Microcell Urban Mobile ScenariosPublication . Caldeirinha, R. F. S.; Fernandes, T. R.; Leonor, N.; Ferreira, D.This paper proposes a framework for extending the applicability of the discrete RET (dRET) model to accommodate radiowave scattering from tree trunks, particularly in microcell urban mobile scenarios, at micro- and millimetre wave frequencies. This framework aims to provide accurate modelling of the signal emanated inside and around isolated blocks of tree trunks, for instances, in raised canopy forests or in urban street canyons like scenarios. Model validation against measurement results inside an anechoic chamber for a double line of regularly spaced metallic and dielectric trunks at 18.8 GHz, as well as recommendations for a more encompassing model, are presented.
