Satellite communication is a promising transmission technique to implement 5G and beyond
networks. Attenuation due to rain begins at a frequency of 10 GHz in temperate regions …

An improved version of the exponential cell (EXCELL) rain attenuation model is presented
here. Analogously to the original one, it predicts attenuation through a cellular …

MultiEXCELL, a new rainfall model oriented to the analysis of radio propagation
impairments which was developed on the basis of a comprehensive rain field database …

In this paper, a semi-empirical method for the prediction of rain attenuation in slant paths
and terrestrial links is proposed. The method uses the same simplified model of equivalent …

This letter investigates rain attenuation in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, by exploiting local drop
size distribution (DSD) measurements. Coefficients for the well-established power-law …

A physically based rain attenuation prediction model for Earth-space links, namely the
enhanced synthetic storm technique (E-SST), is presented. Different from the original SST …

This contribution presents a novel physically based approach to modeling the rain
attenuation affecting terrestrial links. The model is devised by investigating the path …

The effective path length (LE) for the rain attenuation estimation over the Earth-space path
depends on rain cell size, rain rate, and rain height which in turn are determined by the …

A new physically based methodology for the derivation of the complementary cumulative
distribution function (CCDF) of point rain rate with 1-minute integration time, P (R) 1, from a …

This paper presents MORSE (MOdel for Rainfall Statistics Estimation), a unified model for
the prediction of spatial (PS (R)) and temporal (PT (R)) high-resolution rainfall rate statistics …
