Data and code for the paper Atmospheric Observations with E-band Microwave Links – Challenges and Opportunities

Raw and preprocessed data for the paper Atmospheric Observations with E-band Microwave Links – Challenges and Opportunities accepted for publication in the journal Atmospheric Measurement Techniques.

The dataset includes total losses (transmitted - received power levels) of commercial microwave links and observations of rainfall, air temperature, and air relative humidity. In addition, theoretical gaseous attenuation calculated from air temperature and relative humidity is provided.

Data are stored in semicolon-delimited csv files. Time stamps are in UTC time in the format yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS. Raw data contain not regular time series, preprocessed data contain regular time series at 1-min and 5-min temporal resolution. Metadata are stored in textfiles.

Dataset contains also R code for processing and analyzing the data as presented in the paper Atmospheric Observations with E-band Microwave Links – Challenges and Opportunities. The code is in the form of R Markdown files and interactive html notebooks.
