Abstract :
Measurements of linear cross polarization and attenuation on a terrestrial link in the U.K. are reported and correlated with rainfall information. The cross polarization measured during rainfall is compared with theoretically predicted values and monthly cross-polar statistics are presented for a 16-month period.
