Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of Attenuation by Rain
TL;DR: A new model for the prediction of attenuation by rain on either terrestrial or slant earth-to-space propagation paths shows excellent agreement; the observations differ from model predictions by less than the rms deviations predicted by the model.
Book
Electromagnetic Wave Propagation Through Rain
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of rain on weather and climate models are discussed, and an approach to attenuation mitigation via diversity via diversity is proposed. But this approach is not suitable for outdoor environments.
Book
Propagation Handbook for Wireless Communication System Design
TL;DR: PROPAGATION PHENOMENA AFFECTing WIRELESS SYSTEMS Types of Systems Design Criteria Antenna Considerations Propagation Effects Propagations Models Model Verification Statistics and Risk List of Symbols References
Journal ArticleDOI
Propagation phenomena affecting satellite communication systems operating in the centimeter and millimeter wavelength bands
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of the troposphere on satellite communication systems operating in the microwave region are reviewed and the results of computations based upon the theories and atmospheric models are presented and compared with available experimental data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the effects of water on the ACTS propagation terminal antenna
TL;DR: In this article, a model was developed to calculate the antenna reflector and feed surface water layer thickness values as a function of position on each surface, and the thickness values were used to calculate additional attenuation produced by the water layers as a result of rain rate on the antenna.
