In this paper, the synthetic storm technique (SST) is applied to 1-minute rainfall rate collected from a rain gauge to predict the fade dynamics of the signal in an earth-to-satellite link in an equatorial climate location without the needs of satellite beacon measurements. The obtained results are...
