A method to infer the raindrop size distribution from the measurements of point rain rate and rain attenuation at a frequency in centimeter or millimeter wave bands is proposed. This method is applied to the results of field propagation experiments at 81.8, 34.5, and 11.5 GHz through natural rain. It is shown that, if an appropriate frequency is employed, this method is effective as a frequency-scaling method for short terrestrial propagation paths.
