Abstract
The technology disclosed herein relates to enhancing millimeter (mm) wave coverage within a wireless telecommunications network. It is commonly known that mm waves have difficulty propagating through materials. Urban areas pose significant hurdles for mm waves since a line of sight (LOS) to a user device is often times blocked by a physical object (e.g., building, tree, car, etc.). However, mm waves are desirable because of the wide bandwidths available for carrying communications at that frequency range. Embodiments herein provide methods, systems, and computer-storage media for adjusting a transmission power of a mm wave such that it can propagate through a physical object when a permittivity of an external material of the physical object is within a specified range where power adjustment would successfully propagate the mm wave through the physical object.
