Abstract

Since the early 1960s, the Ballistic Research Laboratory (BRL) has been involved in the characterization of millimetre-wave propagation as it applies to military systems. Measurements have been made with radars and radiometers from 30 to 600 GHz of near earth propagation through both natural and cultural obscurants. Results of measurements made in rain, fog, snow, high humidity, dust and some smokes are presented for the major millimetre-wave windows. Some modeling performed by other agencies are presented for comparison.
