Rain fade duration is one of the essential components for engineers to design and plan satellite communication systems at high frequency bands. In this paper, rain fade duration was obtained for twelve consecutive months at Ku-band with 77.4� elevation angle from MEASAT3 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. E...
