  Abstract

Millimeter wave (mmWave) communication has been considered to solve the shortage problem of the frequency resources and to obtain wide band for high throughput communications. One of the studies related to mmWave communication is a statistical channel modeling. Most existing mmWave channel models mainly focus on the short-distance communication systems, such as small cell networks or wireless local area network (WLAN), etc. However, these models are improper to long-distance communication systems. In this paper, we propose the statistical channel model for mmWave long-distance wireless channel by using line-of-sight (LoS) channel model and two-ray channel model which are based on ray-tracing channel modeling method. Considering the curvature of the earth and the atmospheric loss of mmWave, we modify the conventional LoS model and two-ray model to be suitable for mmWave long-distance communication and predict the loss of signal power with regard to distance between transmitter and receiver. Furthermore, we discuss the design of mmWave long-distance communication systems such as the required transmit power for reliable communication by computing a link budget.
