Rain Fade - CCIR Interpolation Formula

CCIR Interpolation Formula

It is possible to extrapolate the cumulative attenuation distribution at a given location by using the CCIR interpolation formula:

Ap = A001 0.12 p−(0.546 − 0.0043 log10 p).

where Ap is the attenuation in dB exceeded for a p percentage of the time and A001 is the attenuation exceeded for 0.01% of the time.

Famous quotes containing the word formula:

    Ideals possess the strange quality that if they were completely realized they would turn into nonsense. One could easily follow a commandment such as “Thou shalt not kill” to the point of dying of starvation; and I might establish the formula that for the proper functioning of the mesh of our ideals, as in the case of a strainer, the holes are just as important as the mesh.
    Robert Musil (1880–1942)
