Global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) can provide reliable positioning information under optimum conditions, where at least four satellites can be accessed with sufficient quality. In critical situations, for example, urban canyons or indoor, due to blocking of satellites by buildings and severe multipath effects, the GNSS performance can be decreased substantially. To overcome this limitation,

Convective rainfall is often focalized in areas of moisture convergence. A close relationship between precipitation and fast variations of vertically-integrated water vapour (IWV) has been found in numerous cases. Therefore, continuous monitoring of atmospheric humidity and its spatial distribution is crucial to the operational forecaster for a proper nowcasting of heavy rainfall events. The microwave
