Abstract :
Earth-Satellite microwave propagation campaigns generate huge amounts of data that must be managed, processed and analyzed in a very effective way. The paper addresses the development of a versatile and friendly Software Package to process multi-year Earth-Satellite propagation data time series collected during in a propagation campaign at Ka-band. Aspects such as data organization, data flow along the processing stages to derive plethora of statistical results, output data retrieval and visualization are presented.
