Analysis of airborne dust effects on terrestrial microwave propagation in arid area

Sand and dust storms are environmental phenomena, during these storms optical visibility might be decreased, consequently, atmospheric attenuation is clearly noticed. Micro-wave (MW) and Milimeter-wave (mm) propagation is severely affected by dust and sand storms in considerable areas around the wor...
