Evaluation of the frequency scaling prediction techniques using experimental data

Long-term statistics of measured slant-path attenuation above Ku-band are severely scarce in the tropical climate; due to the huge capital costs involved in the experimental setup and receiver margin required, which is very difficult to obtain by using a spectrum analyzer. The received signal become...
