Spectral-efficient space communication links are impaired by atmospheric depolarisation caused by rain and ice along the Earth-space path. In this contribution three experiments experiencing three different climatological conditions are compared to assess the underlying mechanisms of depolarisation, in particular to evaluate a possible correlation between depolarisation and ice content.

Abstract

Spectral-efficient space communication links are impaired by atmospheric depolarisation caused by rain and ice along the Earth-space path. In this contribution three experiments experiencing three different climatological conditions are compared to assess the underlying mechanisms of depolarisation, in particular to evaluate a possible correlation between depolarisation and ice content.
