Attenuation due to rain at frequencies above 10 GHz in temperate climates and above 7 GHz in tropical ones is a critical factor for both terrestrial and satellite link system designers. Knowledge of the rain drop size distribution (DSD) is essential for an accurate estimate of the attenuation experi...
