function result = miecoated_rain5(coat, R, TK, fmin, fmax, nfreq)

% Freezing rain
% Extinction, scattering, absorption, backscattering and 
% asymmetric scattering coefficients in 1/km for Marshall-Palmer 
% (MP) drop-size distribution (Sauvageot et al. 1992), versus 
% frequency of ice-coated water spheres (freezing rain)
% with constant thickness 'coat' of the coating, using Mie Theory,
% the dielectric model of Liebe et al. 1991 for water and
% of Mätzler (1998) for ice.
% Input:
% coat: thickness of coating in mm, 
% R: rain rate in mm/h, TK: Temp. in K, 
% fmin, fmax: minimum and maximum frequency in GHz
% nfreq: Number of frequencies
