Review an assessment of electromagnetic wave propagation in sand and dust storms at microwave and millimeter wave band- part 1

Electromagnetic wave propagation in arid and semi-arid regions is influenced by sand and dust storms. Meager information has hitherto been reported as to the effect of storms on telecommunication systems operating in such regions. This paper presents a survey of current understanding of the wave...

Meager information has hitherto been reported as to the effect of storms on telecommunication systems operating in such regions. This paper presents a survey of current understanding of the wave propagation during storms.
