  Achieving adequate coverage with high gain antennas is key to realizing the
full promise of the wide bandwidth available at cm/mm bands. We report
extensive outdoor measurements at 28 GHz in suburban residential areas in New
Jersey and Chile, with over 2000 links measured for same-street link types
(vegetation blocked LOS) from 13 streets and other-street link types (true
NLOS) from 7 streets, using a specialized narrowband channel sounder at ranges
reaching 200 m. The measurements, applicable to fixed wireless access, involved
a 55$^\circ$ transmit antenna placed on the exterior of a street-facing window
and a 10$^\circ$ receive horn antenna spinning on top of a van mast at 3 m
height, emulating a lamppost-mounted base station. Measured path gain-distance
dependence is well represented by power-law models, and azimuth gains at the
base are degraded through scattering by more than 4.3 dB for 10% of links. It
was found that, with 51 dBm EIRP at the base station and 11 dBi antenna at an
outdoor mounted terminal, 1 Gbps downlink rate can be delivered up to 100 m
from a base station deployed in the same street with 90% coverage guarantee.
