Data and code for the manuscript Retrieving Water Vapor From an E-band Microwave Link With an Empirical Model Not Requiring In-situ Calibration accepted for publication to Earth and Space Science in October 2021. The dataset contains 7 month of total losses (transmitted - received power levels) and retrieved water vapor density from a 4.87 km long full-duplex E-band commercial microwave link (CML) operating at 73.5 and 83.5 GHz in Prague, CZ. The CML was operated as a part of a mobile phone backhaul. Furthermore, observations of air temperature, and air relative humidity from sites close to the CML end nodes are provided. Finally, theoretical gaseous attenuation calculated from the air temperature and relative humidity is included as a part of the dataset. Data are stored in semicolon-delimited csv files. Time stamps are in UTC time in the format yyyy-mm-dd HH:MM:SS. All time series are regular and have 5-min temporal resolution. Metadata are stored in text files. The code is in a form of R Markdown files and html notebooks. Results presented in the manuscript Retrieving Water Vapor From an E-band Microwave Link With an Empirical Model Not Requiring In-situ Calibration and in its Supporting information are fully reproducible using this dataset.
