Abstract

Abstract:
In connection to microwave interaction with the rain drops, characterizing equations of
microwave attenuation by the rain drops were derived. The attenuation constant was
found to be an increasing function with rain rate when the rain drop is at resonance. The
results support the previously reported experimental results.
