Prediction of Rain and Water Vapour Attenuation at Frequencies 10-30 GHz

This contribution discusses the attenuation of microwaves in the atmosphere and applies the results to the conditions in the Czech Republic. The simple CCIR method predicting the rain attenuation is described and the relevant rain intensity as the only meteorological parameter required is presented...
