Weather Factor Effect with Distance at 5G Candidate Frequencies in Mosul.

This paper presents the effect of rain rate, humidity, and temperature at multiple frequencies in the millimeter-wave band in Mosul city. The fifth-generation has several candidate frequencies above 10 GHz, such as 28, 37, 60, and 73 GHz. The results show that the attenuation due to weather factors does not represent a problem for short distances but Losses increase with frequency, and at a large distance (1 km), they become very large.
