Abstract
dc:description.abstractOne of the main impacts of climate change is leading to an increase in the incidence of heavy rain at outage level. In this thesis was to identify and study the impact of changes in raindrop size distributions (DSD) on the fixed terrestrial microwave links as a result of an increase in the incidence of heavy rain in the United Kingdom over this decade. Also to introduce an increasing trend in rain rates associated with outage. The daily DSD spanning was calculated from two different sites data (Chilbolton and Sparsholt), the data span up to 6 years at each site.The attenuation that caused by heavy rain and rain drops is serious problem facing meteorologists and hydrologists. This thesis introduces to calculate the specific attenuation by using new method (power-low relationship). Also introduce the theory of scattering by such hydrometers as rain, snow, hail and fog. There are three techniques to determine the scattering parameters are Rayleigh Scattering, Mie Scattering and T-Matrix method.
