Abstract :
The probability distributions of the amplitude scintillations on 36 GHz and 55 GHz millimetre wave links along a 4.1 km path across central London have been obtained. These show that the log-normal distribution applies for the case of 36 GHz, but for 55 GHz, on the side of the oxygen absorption peak, the distribution departs significantly from log-normal.
