Spatio-Temporal Impact of Hand and Body Blockage for Millimeter-Wave User Equipment Design at 28 GHz.

The recently proposed channel model by the Third Generation Partnership Project for fifth generation New Radio (5G-NR) systems at millimeter- wave carrier frequencies in TR38.901 provides a good starting point for understanding the impact of propagation, material penetration, and blockage in cellular access systems. With this backdrop, the focus of this article is on hand and body blockage which h...
