A novel model for complex permittivity of glass for propagation modeling in millimeter-wave band

Abstract

In radio channels modelings, the phases and amplitudes of the rays undergo some modifications when they are reflected from or transmitted through a particular material. These reflection and transmission coefficients make use of the electrical properties of the materials, thus, it is essential to know the values of the relative dielectric constant and of the conductivity or the loss tangent of the materials that appear in the propagation environments. In this paper, a theoretical model based on the inter-molecule interactions, has been developed and used to estimate the dielectric parameters of glass.
