Abstract

The effect of the linear conducting scatterers, such is finite-length thin wire scatterer, and linear array of such wires. on the mobile signal strength in the dense urban environment has been considered. The linear conducting elements, in some locations and orientations, act as passive specular scatterers. They can redirect the mobile signal in the regions, which suffer from mobile communication failure. like shadowing and areas near the cell boundaries. Results indicate enhancement in mobile signal for the cases of near and far distances, 5dB and 3dB for single wire. 17dB and 14dB for four-element linear array, respectively.
