Abstract :
Propagation measurements of 60 GHz transmissions between a hand-held roving transmitter and a receiver located at street-lamp elevations were made in urban and rural locations. The propagation distance exponent was approximately 2.2, and fades 20 dB below the mean envelope level occurred 1% of the time.
