Mathematical Formulations
The single vegetative obstruction model is formally expressed as,
where, A = The Attenuation due to vegetation. Unit: decibel(dB).
d = Depth of foliage. Unit: Meter (m).
= Specific attenuation for short vegetative paths. Unit: decibel per meter (dB/m).
Ri = The initial slope of the attenuation curve.
Rf = The final slope of the attenuation curve.
f = The frequency of operations. Unit: gigahertz (GHz).
k = Empirical constant.

Famous quotes containing the word mathematical:
“It is by a mathematical point only that we are wise, as the sailor or the fugitive slave keeps the polestar in his eye; but that is sufficient guidance for all our life. We may not arrive at our port within a calculable period, but we would preserve the true course.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
