Diffraction of Millimeter Wave Communication Signals into Shadow Regions,

Abstract

A study was conducted to determine the order of magnitude of edge diffraction effects at mm-wavelengths. Theoretical and experimental results were found to be in good agreement; both show, however, that the shadow boundary of mm-waves is well defined and that distances by which a mm-wave receiver may be moved into the shadow zone are limited.
