Abstract :
This is a brief review paper on rain caused attenuation. The paper is a mini-review sponsored by the Wave Propagation Standards Committee of the IEEE. The paper reviews progress on the development and verification of a theory of rain caused attenuation. The paper also considers the statistical models required to predict attenuation.
