  • Abstract
    The SIRIO absolute and differential attenuation data at 11.6 GHz are analysed for rain-cell modelling using uniform effective rain rates and cell depths. These parameters show marginal log-normal distributions. The model is then checked against the SIRIO 17 GHz attenuation data, also available, showing high prediction accuracy.
