TLDR
In this paper, a millimeter wave propagation experiment at 103 GHz (2.9 mm) on a propagation path of 390 m was conducted and the results were compared with the rain attenuation calculations from the Marshall-Palmer, Best, Joss-Thomas-Waldvogel and Weibull distributions for raindrop-size.
Abstract
We have conducted a millimeter wave propagation experiment at 103 GHz (2.9 mm) on a propagation path of 390 m. The results were compared with the rain attenuation calculations from the Marshall-Palmer, Best, Joss-Thomas-Waldvogel and Weibull distributions for raindrop-size. It has been shown that the Weibull distribution has a good agreement with the experiments.

Maximum transmittable data rates for Millimeter-wave fixed wireless links

TL;DR: Here it is shown that fixed wireless links with a distance of 1 km and maximum data rates of around 1 Tbps are possible with just one source, which opens the way to solve the so-called last mile problem.

Terahertz Radio Waves Specific Attenuation Due to Rain with Small Raindrops

TL;DR: In this article, a raindrop size distribution was proposed to estimate the radio waves specific attenuation due to rain in the microwave range, taking into account small raindrops, the new distribution is proposed and the radio wave specific attenu-cation was estimated more precisely for mentioned and some other geographical regions.

The size distribution of raindrops

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined experimental data relating to drop size distribution in rain and showed that in many cases the size distribution is in accordance with the following formulae 1 - F = exp [-(x/a)n] a = A IpW = C Ir where F = fraction of liquid water in the air comprised by drops with diameter less than x.
