Abstract

Future data transmission requirements will be greater, speedier, and more extensive. This is provided by the 6G communication network, which employs frequencies of 100 GHz and above (terahertz). So that all devices can be effectively connected and controlled by humans. However, high frequencies can be attenuated by the atmosphere. The weakening of the terahertz signal received by the receiver system due to attenuation. This paper examines the impact of rain attenuation on the performance of 6G systems using the parameters of free space loss, precipitation, and acceptability. Therefore, a computer simulation approach was conducted to obtain the performance. In this paper, 100 GHz and 300 GHz frequencies were used in LOS conditions, respectively. In addition, two different power transmits: 20 dBm and 24 dBm, and a distance between the base station (BS) and the user equipment (UE) extending from 100 to 600 meters are considered as parameters. The results indicate that the free space loss (FSL) is increase with increasing distance as well as the frequency used increases. As distance increases, the rain attenuation with a high frequency is increased. The received power for each power transmission remains within the acceptable range of the 6G communication network. © 2023 IEEE.
