Estimation of Raindrop Size Distribution Parameters Using Rain Attenuation Data from a Ku-Band Communications Satellite

Estimation of Raindrop Size Distribution Parameters Using Rain Attenuation Data from a Ku-Band Communications Satellite

The rain attenuation of down-link radio wave signals from the Superbird-C satellite and surface rainfall data have been used to estimate the parameters of exponential raindrop size distribution (DSD) at Koto Tabang (100.32 °E, 0.20 °S), West Sumatra, Indonesia. Prior to analyzing the measured data,...
