| Abstract | The statistical morphology of cross-polarization due to rain is of considerable interest to system designers in order to estimate accurately the signal total availability of time. In this paper, an attempt has been made to compute cross-polarization of millimeters waves in the Ku- and Ka-band frequencies range due to rain. ITU-R P.618-9 model has been used to predict cross-polarization discrimination (XPD) over three different elevation angles in Nigeria with modification using log-normal distributions of raindrop sizes at 20°C and assuming circular polarization for Earth–satellite propagation paths. The study includes a number of earth stations in Nigeria, namely Akure, Ikeja, Calabar, Minna, and Kano. Variations of co-polar attenuation with XPD as well as cumulative distribution of XPD have also been presented. The result of the estimation of XPD at various elevations angles and at the frequencies considered shows the dependence of XPD on frequency, co-polar attenuation, and rainfall rates. The orthogonal channels at the same frequency situated at the coastal region is prone to higher amount of unwanted signal mostly at the elevation angle of 23° (for communication links over the Indian Ocean) than at other elevation angles considered in this report. |

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.
