A survey of atmospheric propagation research experiments on slant paths, in the band 15-40 GHz
Abstract
A study of the available literature is presented, resulting in a review of the present knowledge with respect to 15 to 40 GHz slant path propagation. Experiments are presented first by location in a decreasing order of complexity, then by subject: attenuation, depolarization, space diversity, and signal fluctuation. They are illustrated by key diagrams. A short compilation of sixteen survey papers is also presented. This bibliographic study has retained about one hundred references out of several hundred papers.
