摘要
We describe the effect of ground blizzards and blowing snow on millimeter wave scintillation spectra at 116 and 230 GHz. During snowstorms, multipath propagation can occur for various reasons. Whatever the reason for the multipath, it will affect the scintillation spectrum. Enhancement of the scintillation spectrum is observed at both low and high temporal frequencies. In some cases, two additional corner frequencies are evident at the high-frequency end of the scintillation spectrum. The method of obtaining the cross-path wind component fails when the wind is nearly parallel to the propagation path.
