The use of the ITU-R model for attenuation prediction at high frequency bands has not been
effectively proven. In the following described experiment, the W band frequency, focusing on …

We present 560 m terrestrial link rain attenuation measurements at 84 GHz in Albuquerque,
New Mexico. Both empirical and theoretical rain attenuation models such as ITU-R, Mie and …

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) recommendation P. 838-3 provides a
method to calculate the specific attenuation due to rain. Although the model nature is …

This paper examined the use of existing empirical rain attenuation models for earth-space
paths links for frequencies at Q band and greater. Extrapolation of these models that are …

Rain attenuation is one of the key design parameters when setting up satellite
communication systems at frequencies above 10 GHz. Reliable and economical system …

This paper addresses a variation of the ITU-R P. 838-3 rain attenuation estimation method to
obtain an estimation of the rain rate based on the actual observed attenuation of a …

Most of the available rain attenuation models have been derived on the basis of
experimental measurements carried out only at frequency bands below 20 GHz or with little …

Rain attenuation is a dominant impairment in frequencies greater than 10 GHz, raindrops
absorbs electromagnetic energy, turning it into thermal energy, furthermore dispersing the …

Millimeter wave (mm Wave) is today's breakthrough frontier for emerging wireless mobile
cellular networks, wireless local area networks, personal area networks, and vehicular …

This paper presents the Mie theory for propagation loss resulting from atmosphere scattering
and absorption for W/V frequency bands. The theory will be validated using experiment data …
