Rain attenuation calculation in satellite communication
I'm working on LEO-1200 satellite communication, where I'm trying to compute the distance between the ground station and the satellite. Moreover, I needed to calculate topographic_altitude, rain_attenuation, and elevation_angle, but I got confused between these parameters.
lat : number, sequence, or numpy.ndarray
Latitudes of the receiver points # this is the Latitudes of the ground station
lon : number, sequence, or numpy.ndarray
Longitudes of the receiver points # this is the Longitudes of the ground station
lat_p : number
Latitude projection of the point P (degrees)
lon_p : number
Longitude projection of the point P (degrees)
lat_grid : number, sequence of np.ndarray
Grid of latitude points to which compute the distance (degrees)
lon_grid : number, sequence of np.ndarray
Grid of longitude points to which compute the distance (degrees)
h : float
Orbital altitude of the satellite (km) # this can be 1200 km
lat_s : float
Latitude of the projection of the satellite (degrees)
lon_s : float
Longitude of the projection of the satellite (degrees)
I appreciate any help you can provide.
