説明

The quasi millimeter wave performance suffers degradation under rain, due to the high loss tangent of water in the quasi millimeter wave region. This effect cannot be theoretically estimated due to the complex nature of water flow on the radome surface. The above special effect is observed also in the case of snow-covered surface of the dome.<BR>In order to ascertain the above-mentioned effect, some model tests were performed. The main results are summarized as follows : <BR>(1) Laboratory tests on the effects of water accretion on the radome surface<BR>The surface area of the radome used in this experiment is 50cm×50cm, and the frequency used is 24 GHz. It is found that attenuation factor vs. thickness of water film becomes about 18dB/mm. And attenuation factor vs. area percentage of stringy flow of running water is correlative.<BR>(2) Field tests on the effects of snow accretion on the practical radome surface<BR>The aperture size of the practical radome used in this experiment is 3.3 meters, and this radome is made of dielectric plates (laminated polyester resin reinforced with glass fiber).<BR>Diurnal variations of snow accretion on the above radome were observed in the winter of 1973. The maximum thickness of accreted snow layer was about 60 cm. The condition of snow accretion varied quickly over a wide range chiefly with air temperature, especially above 0°C, and with weather conditions (sunny or shaded sides of the radome).
