Results of the combination of a ray-tracing computer model with measured refractive-index vertical profiles to study the relationship between copolar attenuation and crosspolar discrimination due to multipath effects on LOS frequency-reuse microwave links are reported. The results are in good agreement with those obtained by direct measurements.

Inspec keywords: microwave links; telecommunications computing; antenna radiation patterns; refractive index

Other keywords: ray-tracing computer model; antenna radiation patterns; copolar attenuation; crosspolar discrimination; refractive-index vertical profiles; microwave LOS links; frequency reuse; multipath effects

Subjects: Radio links and equipment; Antenna theory; Communications computing
