Northeast Monsoon Effect on Ultra High Frequency (UHF) Signal Attenuation at Kusza Observatory

Northeast (NE) monsoon season in Malaysia was developed due to conjunction with cold air outbreaks from Siberia produce heavy rains, strong wind, and high humidity. This weather condition can affect the radio signal transmission which is crucial to spectrum user. This work investigates the effect...
