Abstract :
New analysis of videodistrometer rain drops measurements in Prague is shown in this contribution. Relationships between R (rain rate), Z (radar reflectivity factor) and A (attenuation) are derived from our measurement and discussed. We concluded and explained that for certain frequencies the attenuation depends on rain intensity uniquely, for other frequencies it is unambiguous.
