Hi Mike,

This phenomenon is apparent in the LMDS bands but not in MMDS where the attenuation from rain/sleet/snow has little or no impact. It is very important in this market to distinguish the two bands and their differences; the lower frequency bands offer the potential of near/non LOS (and longer range, easy CPE install) whereas the higher frequency require short range and direct LOS. Of course, at this stage the LMDS band offers greater bandwidth though not necessarily greater capacity, which depends more on the network design.

There is a difference in end markets as well; LMDS targets large enterprises that can afford the expensive equipment needed whereas MMDS targets SME's and to some extent residential and so over time the economies of scale are being depended on to make it profitable...

Regards, Rob
