Assessments of time diversity rain fade mitigation technique for v-band space-earth link operating in tropical climate

Satellite communication systems are moving towards greater capacity. Millimeter wave frequency offers a large bandwidth allocation, requires small antenna size and should not experience congested spectrum environment. Nonetheless, rain posses a grave threat to such satellite communication links espe...
