This page provides a rain absorption temperature calculator as part of a larger suite of converters and calculators. This tool helps determine the rain absorption temperature based on the physical temperature of the antenna and the rain absorption in decibels (dB).
It’s a handy resource for anyone working with radio frequency (RF) systems, especially those dealing with signal propagation in environments with rainfall.
How to Use the Calculator
The calculator requires two inputs:
- Rain Absorption in dB: The amount of signal attenuation caused by rain.
- Physical Temperature of Antenna: The actual temperature of the antenna itself.
The calculator then outputs the:
- Rain Absorption Temperature in Kelvin (K): This represents the effective noise temperature contributed by rain absorption.
Example
Let’s look at a quick example:
INPUT:
- Rain Absorption in dB = 0.6
OUTPUT:
- Rain Absorption Temperature in K = 37.44
Rain Absorption Temperature Equation
The following equation or formula is used for the Rain Absorption Temperature Calculator:
