Abstract
Two techniques are developed to separate the path attenuation caused by rain, and the losses caused by rainwater on the radomes of a short 38 GHz link in Singapore. The relationships between the wet radome loss and rainfall rate are presented for different seasons since there is a significant seasonal variation in wind speed and direction
