| The design of radio communication systems that include fade mitigation techniques (FMTs) requires the use of indepth information regarding the expected propagation effects. In particular, the most important propagation effects in Ka-band satellite systems are the signal attenuation caused by rain, gases and clouds, and the fast signal fluctuations due to tropospheric scintillation. In this context, a propagation experiment is being carried out in Madrid with the aim to analyze the propagation of Ka-band signals in the atmosphere. The experimental equipment includes a beacon receiver working in this frequency band (19.701 GHz). The main goal is the complete study of propagation in the Ka-Band to characterizing the attenuation due to rain and scintillation. In this paper, the most remarkable results of the experiment are presented and the conclusions obtained. | |
