Analysis of time diversity gain for satellite communication link based on ku-band rain attenuation data measured in Malaysia

This paper reports a study on mitigation of propagation impairments on Earth-space communication links. The study uses time diversity as a technique for mitigating rain propagation impairment in order to rectify rain fade. Rain attenuation time series along earth-to-satellite link were measured for...
