Analysis of rain attenuation models for slant path
Abstract
Several methods for computing the cumulative distribution of rain attenuation for slant paths have been tested at three different locations in Italy. The results have been compared with the measured attenuation at 11.6 GHz through the Sirio satellite beacon, and the behavior of each model has been investigated.
