% Compute the temperature of an antenna on the ground.
Rain acts as an attenuator for the sky.
Type TAntennaGround for a demo. See also TSky and LossPrecipitation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
tA = TAntennaGround( tSky, aRain, tGround )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
Inputs
------
tSky (1,1) Ambient temperature of the sky
aRain (1,1) Rain Loss (dB)
tGround (1,1) Ambient temperature of the ground (deg-C)
-------
Outputs
-------
tA (1,1) Antenna noise temperature
