heal.abstract	In heavy rain climatic regions, attenuation caused by rain presents a problem for satellite communications at frequencies above 10 GHz. In some severe cases, double site diversity protection can be proved to be inadequate and consequently triple diversity becomes indispensable. A theoretical model is presented for estimating the improvement in rain outage performance caused by triple site protection. Experimental results taken from some parts of the United States, such as New Jersey and Florida, are compared with the theoretical values and the agreement has been found to be encouraging.	en
