Abstract | Statistical distribution of rain attenuation is essential for development of microwave and millimeter-wave communication links. Therefore rain-related statistics are very important for a commercialisation system designer. This study proposes modifications to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-R P.618-10) model and an appropriate rain attenuation prediction model for tropical countries. The model was developed based on data obtained from tropical and equatorial regions. The proposed model uses rainfall rate and rain attenuation at 0.01% of the time, R 0.01 and A 0.01, elevation angle θ and altitude of site h s, respectively, as input parameters. The proposed model showed remarkable agreement with existing rain attenuation measured data in terms of prediction errors for mean square, standard deviation and root-mean square. The proposed rain attenuation model was used for validation by comparing the model with measured data collected from Nigeria, Kenya and Papua New Guinea, whereby the proposed model gave a percentage error below 12%. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
