Abstract
Quantitative analysis and prediction of radio attenuation is required in order to improve reliability of satellite-earth communication links and for economically efficient design. For this reason, many countries have made efforts to develop their own rain attenuation prediction models which are fit for their rain environment. In this study the slant path length adjustment factor and rain height proposed in Korea and Japan was applied to ITU-R model (P.618-5, P.618-8), which is most widely used in the world. Their results were compared to measured data of rain attenuation and their effectiveness and validity were examined through evaluating the Pearson correlation coefficient.
