Abstract
This paper compares the predicted monthly scintillation means of nine scintillation prediction models to the monthly mean of the empirical data collected from the beacon receiver located at USM which has a frequency of 12.255 GHz and elevation angle of 40.1°. The impact of tropospheric scintillation has to be considered in the design and planning of satellite communication systems at frequencies above 10 GHz.
