| Summary: | Generated rain attenuation time series is required for investigating the rain fade
characteristics in the lack of real fade measurements. A suitable conversion technique can be
applied to rain rate time series to produce rain attenuation data and be utilized to understand the
rain fade characteristics the problem. This paper focused on applicability of synthetic storm
technique (SST) to convert available data to rain attenuation time series. Its performance is
assessed for time series generation over Kuala Lumpur, a tropical location in Malaysia. From the
analysis, it is found that SST gives satisfactory results to estimate the rain attenuation time series
from the rain rate measurements over this region. |
