This contribution presents a model to generate time series of rain attenuation by adapting a large set of rain attenuation measurements to different locations. The proposed model allows generating rainy and not rainy conditions for multiple stations in a large geographical area, reproducing the actual spatial and temporal variability of the rain process, with limited computational effort. Single site and joint statistics of rain attenuation obtained by the time series of measurements are discussed. The model is used to show the effectiveness, in terms of link margin, of gateway networks in smart diversity arrangement, for different separation distances among sites.
