Abstract

One year of copolarized signal data from the OLYMPUS satellite's 12, 20, and 30 GHz beacons were examined for frequency scaling of attenuation. The statistics of the ratios of attenuation in dB for the frequency pairs 30/20, 20/12, and 30/12 GHz computed at each 0.1 s-sample instant were found to be nearly independent of fade depth. It was found that attenuation in dB scales with frequency to the 1.9 power. Also, attenuation ratios computed from the separate statistics of attenuation at each frequency for the same level of occurrence are very close to those found from instantaneous attenuation ratios.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
