“The annual fade⟳ time is three times that occurring in a heavy fading month when the climate is average.”

“The fractional fade⟳ time (also called the probability of fade⟳) describes the percentage of time the irradiance of the received wave⟳ is below some given threshold value.”

“The mean⟳ fade⟳ time decreases with increasing elevation and fade⟳ threshold.”

“Figure⟳ 4.12 of [8] shows that on the same path from which the data in Fig. 4.11 of [8] was derived, for fade⟳ depth deeper than about 20 dB, the fade⟳ time decreases by a factor of about 10 for a 10 dB increase⟳ in fade⟳ depth.”

“Omitting this parameter invokes a default fade⟳ time, which is 1,000 milliseconds.”

“The time is used to assign a fade⟳ time to a cue.”
