Summary:
21GHz-band satellite broadcasting is expected to provide advanced services such as UHDTV and 3DTV. However, a major challenge is the large RF signal attenuation due to rainfall. In this work, the rainfall rates across Japan and the rain attenuation in the 21-GHz band are investigated based on measured data
