arXiv:2603.18810 · doi:10.1109/LAWP.2025.3600373
Abstract
A stochastic modeling methodology for 3-D foliage is presented, aimed at enhancing ray-tracing simulations. The model supports adjustable stochastic geometry, density, and shape to capture variability in foliage structures. The model is validated through experimental measurements of representative vegetation. The influence of foliage density and size on path loss and root mean square delay spread is analyzed to demonstrate the applicability of the model in the 80 GHz frequency band.
