| Abstract: | Measurements of 20-GHz radio wave rainfall attenuation and cross-polarization discrimination due to rain have been conducted since July 1971 in Tokyo. There was a high correlation between rainfall attenuation and cross-polarization discrimination. Rainfall attenuation of 45 dB caused cross-polarization discrimination of 12 dB. |
