Range and Reliability
No RF is impervious to weather: our sweet spot is the last 1-2 miles
We ONLY see torrential rain (3+ inches per hour)
The tradeoffs
In dry air: 10 mile range
Over the course of a year
Five 9s to a mile in 80% of the continental US
Five 9s to 0.7 miles in the rest (FL-LA)
Europe: Longer ranges
At Four 9s, distance doubles, and at Three 9s, nearly double again: useful
in the 3rd world
In a properly designed ring, the distance of each link can be doubled:
rotational diversity
To repeat, we do NOT see dust, fog, snow, ice, scintillation, oxygen, molecule
absorption, light rain, medium rain
