            Abstract : 
In this paper, we predict the vertical profiles of the structure constant from radiosonde data measured in Fukuoka, Japan by applying the above statistical method, and then analyze BER for satellite communications in Ka-band at low elevation angles using the predicted profiles of the structure constant.
