Good correlation between simultaneous 6 and 4 GHz depolarisation, and several additional statistical results, were obtained from a 6 month measurement programme in a heavy-rainfall equatorial region. These results show the feasibility of implementing up-link depolarisation precompensation using the coincident down-link depolarisation as the sole control parameter.
