Estimating 1min rain rate distributions from numerical weather prediction (2017)
Journal Article
Paulson, K. S. (2017). Estimating 1min rain rate distributions from numerical weather prediction. Radio science, 52(1), 176-184. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016rs006111

Internationally recognized prognostic models of rain fade on terrestrial and Earth-space EHF links rely fundamentally on distributions of one-minute rain rates. Currently, in Rec. ITU-R P.837-6, these distributions are generated using the Salonen Poi... Read More about Estimating 1min rain rate distributions from numerical weather prediction.

Evidence of trends in rain event size effecting trends in rain fade (2016)
Journal Article

Rain gauge studies have shown that the incidence of rain at rates associated with outage on terrestrial links, has shown an increasing trend in several countries, over the last 30 years. However, no evidence is available from microwave links to show... Read More about Evidence of trends in rain event size effecting trends in rain fade.

A method to estimate trends in distributions of 1 min rain rates from numerical weather prediction data (2015)
Journal Article

It is known that the rain rate exceeded 0.01% of the time in the UK has experienced an increasing trend over the last 20 years. It is very likely that rain fade and outage experience a similar trend. This paper presents a globally applicable method t... Read More about A method to estimate trends in distributions of 1 min rain rates from numerical weather prediction data.
