Abstract: The K-band fade statistics in Tokyo were measured using an antenna (beamwidth of 19.5/spl deg/ in elevation and 6.5/spl deg/ in azimuth) at elevations ranging from 37 to 80/spl deg/. The results show that line-of sight communication is possible only /spl sim/33% of the distance at elevations
