The information of atmospheric attenuation at Ka‐band is important during rain and clear air condition. In this paper, Ka‐band attenuation data obtained from radiometric measurements at Kolkata, India (22°034′E, 88°022′N) have been presented. The role of water vapor is examined in determining the behavior of atmospheric attenuation during and without rain condition at 22.24, 26.24, and 31.4 GHz frequencies. It has been observed that at lower rain rate (<5 mm/hr), attenuation at 22.24 GHz is the highest among three frequencies due to water vapor absorption at this frequency. Millimeter Wave Propagation (MPM) model has been used to observe the contribution of rain and water vapor in determining atmospheric attenuation for different rain rates. It has been noted that at 22.24 GHz, water vapor attenuation is comparable to the rain attenuation up to 5 mm/hr. The measured attenuation from radiometer has been compared with ITU‐R model‐generated data and both the attenuation data match reasonably well up to rain rate 20 mm/hr. The attenuation obtained from radiometric measurements shows saturation with increasing rain rate due to the darkening effect. The ITU‐R frequency scaling model has been used to compare the measured and calculated attenuation at 31.4 GHz. This study gives some useful information about the radiometric measurements of atmospheric attenuation at a tropical location that shows that not only rain rate but also water vapor is an important cause of attenuation at Ka‐band.

热带地区大气衰减的辐射测量

在雨天和晴天时,Ka波段大气衰减的信息很重要。本文介绍了从印度加尔各答(22°034′E,88°022′N)的辐射测量获得的Ka波段衰减数据。在确定在22.24、26.24和31.4 GHz频率下有雨和无雨时大气衰减的行为中,水蒸气的作用得到了检验。已经观察到,在较低的降雨率(<5 mm / hr)下,由于在该频率下吸收了水蒸气,因此在三个频率中,22.24 GHz处的衰减最高。毫米波传播(MPM)模型已用于观察降雨和水蒸气在确定不同降雨率的大气衰减中的作用。已经注意到,在22.24 GHz时,高达5毫米/小时的水蒸气衰减与雨水衰减相当。已将辐射计测得的衰减与ITU‐R模型生成的数据进行了比较,并且两个衰减数据在降雨速率20 mm / hr时都相当匹配。从辐射测量获得的衰减显示,由于暗化效应,降雨率增加时饱和。ITU-R频率缩放模型已用于比较在31.4 GHz处测量和计算的衰减。这项研究提供了一些有关热带地区大气衰减辐射测量的有用信息,这些信息表明,不仅降雨率,而且水汽也是造成Ka波段衰减的重要原因。已将辐射计测得的衰减与ITU‐R模型生成的数据进行了比较,并且两个衰减数据在降雨速率20 mm / hr时都相当匹配。从辐射测量获得的衰减显示,由于暗化效应,降雨率增加时饱和。ITU-R频率缩放模型已用于比较在31.4 GHz处测量和计算的衰减。这项研究提供了一些有关热带位置大气衰减的辐射测量的有用信息,这些信息表明,不仅降雨率,而且水汽也是造成Ka波段衰减的重要原因。已将辐射计测得的衰减与ITU‐R模型生成的数据进行了比较,并且两个衰减数据在降雨速率20 mm / hr时都相当匹配。从辐射测量获得的衰减显示,由于暗化效应,降雨率增加时饱和。ITU-R频率缩放模型已用于比较在31.4 GHz处测量和计算的衰减。这项研究提供了一些有关热带位置大气衰减的辐射测量的有用信息,这些信息表明,不仅降雨率,而且水汽也是造成Ka波段衰减的重要原因。ITU-R频率缩放模型已用于比较在31.4 GHz处测量和计算的衰减。这项研究提供了一些有关热带地区大气衰减辐射测量的有用信息,这些信息表明,不仅降雨率,而且水汽也是造成Ka波段衰减的重要原因。ITU-R频率缩放模型已用于比较在31.4 GHz处测量和计算的衰减。这项研究提供了一些有关热带地区大气衰减辐射测量的有用信息,这些信息表明,不仅降雨率,而且水汽也是造成Ka波段衰减的重要原因。
