Sanjeev Suresh, M Ganesh Madhan . An Experimental Study of Rain Attenuation at Ku Band Frequencies for an Earth Space Path over Chennai. International Symposium on Devices MEMS, Intelligent Systems & Communication. ISDMISC, 6 (None 2011), 1-5.
In this paper, rainfall attenuation suffered by a Ku band signal was measured with a receiver located at Anna University’s MIT campus and used to verify the accuracy of the ITU R model in the Chennai region. The rainfall statistics were applied to the appropriate ITU R model and the differences between the experimental and observed results for the attenuation suffered by the system have been documented and tabulated.
