PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF AN IMPROVED ITU-R RAIN ATTENUATION PREDICTION MODEL OVER MALAYSIA EQUATORIAL REGION

SUMMARY

Attenuation due to rainfall is one of the most fundamental constraints on the performance of satellite links above 10 GHz. This work presents the results of rain attenuation measurement using radar data collected from MMD and DIDM Malaysia. The results were compared with newly improved ITU-R P530-16 and four other selected tropical rain attenuation prediction models. The statistical analysis showed that ITU-R P 530-16 has significantly addressed the problem of rain attenuation underestimation prediction as presented by older version of the recommendation
