Abstract
Free space wireless signal communication has the capacity and vast spread expansion to provide the right platform to support the growing demand for communication services. The propagation of electronic waves is the core of actual wireless communication links between ground stations and satellite ground communications. However, rain, dust, ground topography, urban surface, and other physical barriers weakened the transmitted signal strength and loss, reducing the quality and completion of the data transfer process. This work focuses on diffraction, weakening, and loss of signals when crossing urban areas surrounded by high buildings. We present a machine learning model for estimating the signal strength after crossing the urban areas. This assessment helps recommend the proper signal strength required when launching the signals towards the end station located in urban surroundings. We use a neural network system that derives patterns and rules from a given dataset containing simulated sampling data and predicts the optimal transmission strength when launched.
