| description | Duststorms are significant meteorological phenomenon occur for a significant percentage of time in
arid and semi arid areas especially at African Sahara and Middle East. Measurements at existing
microwave links show that the duststorms can potentially result in serious attenuation in signal level
especially at Ku band and higher frequencies with direct impact on telecommunications system
performance. Very limited research has been done to predict the attenuation even the scarcity of measured
data forces the researcher to work for the duststorm prediction modeling. |
