Attenuation Model Comparison And Validation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Advanced Communications Technology Satellite (ACTS) propagation experiment has yielded five years measurements of rain rates and attenuation at 20.185 GHz and 27.505 GHz in seven diverse climate regions throughout North America. Figure 1 shows the former locations of ACTS propagation terminals. In the pursuit of rain attenuation models, rain has generally been classified as stratiform, convective, or cyclonic. Location has everything to do with how much of each of these types of rain a communications link will experience. In addition, changes in drop size distribution, drop shape, and canting angle are to be expected. Perturbations in average rain characteristics are common with El Nino. This paper discusses the ACTS propagation measurements in contrast to the Revised Two Component model and the DAH model.

Rhizophora wood exhibits characteristics of interaction with radiation similar to those of water. Recently, a novel model based on MCNP4C code has been proposed for calculation of mass attenuation coefficients for some polymers. The aim of this study is to determine the mass attenuation coefficients for Rhizophora wood in energy range 15.77-60 keV using this model. First, the mentioned model wa...

متن کاملAcoustic and thermal simulations of tcMRgFUS in patient specific models: validation with experiments
Background/introduction In tcMRgFUS, acoustic and spatial heterogeneities of the skull cause reflection, attenuation, and phase aberrations of the acoustic beams, which may cause patient-specific thermal responses to the same transducer power. In this work, we use acoustic and thermal simulations based on patient-specific 3D heterogeneous tissue models to predict heating at the center of the br...
