The Comparison and Analysis on Fog and Haze Attenuation in Asian Countries

Abstract

Haze is usual atmospheric phenomenon in several countries especially in Asian countries. Fog can happen in every countries around the world, however, in Asian countries especially in tropical regions formation of fog is hardly visible expect during dawn or around higher latitude. Therefore, haze and fog attenuation in millimeter wave in Asian countries need more focused and further research. The scattering and absorption caused by the particles can be huge issues in implementing millimeter wave in Asian countries. Fog has higher chances in causing attenuation in millimeter wave. Even though haze usually caused scattering in light but there are higher possibility that it can also affect microwave links especially in higher frequency
