- © 2021 IEEE.The new requirements of context aware environments within the framework of Smart Cities and Smart Regions come with the implementation of the Fifth-Generation (5G) wireless technology and the use of millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequency bands. However, signal propagation at these frequency bands also comes with different channel impairments that needs to be completely understood before the design and implementation of a wireless communication system. Therefore, in this work, the spatial and temporal channel characteristics of a typical urban environment have been identified for wireless networks in 30 and 70 GHz frequency bands by means of an in-house deterministic approach.
