Abstract

PURPOSE: To predict a rainfall in a narrow range in a short time, by using BS broadcast waves from a broadcasting satellite. CONSTITUTION: BS broadcast waves 3 transmitted from a broadcasting satellite 1 are received by a BS receiving antenna 4, and the attenuation of the intensity of an electric field of the BS broadcast waves by a rainfall 2 is detected by a BS receiver 5. A time difference after the occurrence of the attenuation of the BS broadcast waves 3 by the rainfall up in the sky until the waves reach the ground is measured. Moreover, the velocity and direction of wind when the rainfall in the sky is detected are measured by a wind velocity/wind direction sensor 6 and sent to a computer 7. In this manner, when and how much the rain falls are predicted at a point where the BS broadcast waves are received.
