Abstract :
The Microwaves Laboratory of the UJniversity of Louvain-la-Neuve has a research program in the atmospheric microwave propagation since about 20 years. In 1988, the decision was taken to have two Olympus earth-stations built by Newtec, Belgium. The Louvain-la-Neuve station was funded by Scientific Policy and the Lessive station was funded by the P.T.T.A short description of the two stations is presented in this paper, together with the first results.
