Abstract :
Using six recent years (2000-2005) of point rainfall data from several locations in Greece, the rainfall rate exceeded for 0.01% of the average year is derived. The originally reported resultsa, allow radio systems engineers to evaluate more accurately the effects of local climatology to wireless communications systems installed in Greece.
