Abstract
Results on attenuation of radio waves in frequencies between 10 GHz an d 400 GHz for different rain rates are presented. The results were der ived on the basis of rain rates measured over Delhi by using a rapid r esponse rain gauge. The values of attenuation deduced by using the mea sured rain-rate data are more than those obtained by using the rain-ra te data given in Radiometeorological Data, CCIR Report No. 563-4, 1990 .
