A. Method 1
The first method is using the same approach of Kurt
and Spokas by built a decision matrix. The difference is the
beam transmittance assignment in this matrix is controlled
by Relative humidity value. Better estimation was obtained
with the concept that water vapor by mean of RH reduce the
incoming radiation. Kurt and Spokas (2007) suggest the
value of was modified if T<10oC by the following
relationship assumed that the site was not near the poles as
described by [5]:
GPh = Goh m
= / (11- T)

temperature data. The second method is by using RHclearness index, clearness index-beam atmospheric
transmission and beam atmospheric transmission-RH
correlation. The result shows that both methods perform
well. Method 1 provided better results with minimum
correlation coefficient of 0.95, RMSE of 87.6 Watt/m2,
NRSME of 8.29% and index of agreement of 0.97. The
prediction was intended to fill missing data in solar
radiation data set to get complete time series data. However,
in this study only one year of one area data have been used.
Validation using sufficient large amount of data is required
for wider application of the method.
