Mobile Radio Propagation Effects

Signal strength must be strong enough between base station and mobile unit to maintain signal quality at the receiver must not be so strong as to create too much interference with channels in another cell. Attenuation due to rain presence of raindrops can severely degrade the reliability and performance of communication links trees near subscriber sites can lead to multipath fading Loss of strength of signal due to absorption by trees, plants, parks (greenary) is called vegetation losses
