Abstract
Initial work is described towards the development of a more accurate asymptotic prediction method for the high fade depth range of the fading distribution on line-of-sight terrestrial microwave links. The influence of parameters such as path length, frequency, terrain roughness, path inclination, antenna beamwidth and path clearance is analysed using multipath fading data from a large number of links in the UK.
