Abstract
Angle dependences of MM-wave rain scattering have been numerically analyzed using the T-matrix technique with regard to both the raindrop nonsphericity and size distribution. Results of numerically calculating the angle dependence of rain scattering are presented. The differential scattering cross-section of a single raindrop has been studied. Angle dependence of scattering cross-sections for unit volume of rain have been analyzed. The available results may prove useful in the design of frequency reuse systems.
