This article addresses the opportunistic use of satellite downlink attenuation measurements for the site-specific estimation of rainfall rate. In particular, this article proposes a regression model characterized by the introduction of correction elements extracted from the frequency-domain analysis of the attenuation time series, and the use of a simple linear regression function with a small modification, which allows to using a negative intercept with the goal of minimizing the maximum error (large underestimation/overestimation). The performance, assessed using attenuation measurements of a satellite downlink in Q/V band shows that the proposed model allows to estimate the rainfall rate with low average error and low maximum error with respect to a more standard ITU model, so as to offer more reliable estimations.
