| Abstract | This research study investigates the rain attenuation model that is applied to Ku-band satellite communication networks. Rain attenuation are calculated by using 4 models, CHULA, SAM CCIR-87 and CCIR-92b. The results are compared and applied to VSAT network to evaluate its performance. The results indicate that the CHULA model gives lower attenuation than the others. The CCIR-87 model gives higher attenuation. However, in the SAM model attenuation tends to increase a small percent of the time when compared with other models. The performance is measured in terms of antenna diameter and link availability by specifying the bit error, information bit rate and modulation teclmiques. The network is based on a star network. |
