Abstract :
In this paper frequency diversity as a recovery technique against the rainfall attenuation occurred between satellites to earth links is concerned. The target is to improve the communication capacity of a satellite with the simultaneous use of Ku, Ka-band and millimeter-wave frequencies (40 GHz).
