The rain attenuation frequency correlation was analyzed and the relationship between the average annual and worst month rain attenuation distributions was estimated. The relationship between cross-polarization discrimination and co-polar rain attenuation was studied. The results were produced by comparison of the experimental data on radio wave attenuation in rainy weather and in multi-path propagation with the calculated ones by applying various prediction methods. Based on the comparison results, the method of LIN [1] proved to give the best accuracy (rms = 21%) in rain attenuation prediction and the expression in [2] yielding multi-path fading probability was specified.Read More
