Rain attenuation at Ka-band is a severe phenomenon that drastically impairs satellite communications at these frequencies. Several\r\nadaptive compensation techniques have been elaborated to counteract its effects and most often applied one at a time. The present\r\npaper proposes the contemporary exploitation of different techniques in a combined approach. Such an integrated approach is\r\nthoroughly analyzed in a simplified scenario and will be shown to achieve a very effective solution, making the Ka-band spectrum\r\nfully available for broadband satellite applications and network-centric systems.
