Abstract:Microwave telecommunications links are severely influenced by the frequency and climatic parameters as refractivity gradient (dN1), geoclimatic factor (K), rain, temperature, pressure, and humidity. This influence increases with the frequency of the wave. In microwave band, recent research has shown that the geoclimatic factor (K), rain and temperature are the most important parameters affecting the performance of terrestrial links. K is an important parameter as directly proportional to the worst month outage… Show more
