Abstract :
In this paper, the discrete Radiative Energy Transfer (dRET) theory is proposed to model time-variant channel effects in vegetation media at millimetre-wave frequencies. The proposed methodology makes use of the dRET input parameters time-varying properties to estimate the dynamic radio channel effects caused by wind-induced foliage movement.
