Abstract :
Three experiments were set up within a joint African radiometric propagation measurement programme to provide data at frequencies above 10 GHz for predictive modelling. The results of the first year of measurements in Nairobi, Kenya, are reported. Significant differences are evident between the measured results and the CCIR rain zone and path attenuation predictions.
