Summary:
The next generation of satellite will be operated in the higher frequency bands. Rain attenuation will become in front to degrade the satellite signal. In this paper, time diversity method and adaptive satellite power control method are combined in order to mitigate the rain attenuation by using rain radar data over Japan. However, due to the effectiveness of time diversity method and small behaviors of rain in Japan, a short time delays and a few power boost beam are evaluated. The performance of the system presents by the diversity gain, and these two systems are compatible well.
