“…Tropospheric ducting causes multipath propagation leading to short-term fading, inter-symbol interference and increase in signal data bit-error-rate in mobile communications, (Asiyo and Afullo, 2013;Hansen et al, 2011;Kerans et al, 2002;Lee, 1993). Those effects give rise to increasing interest in detailed studies of the coastal environment thus ensuring better modeling of propagation phenomena to increase the ability of communication and radar systems performance forecasts, (Claverie and Hurtaud, 2014;Dinc and Akan, 2015;Sirkova, 2012a).…”
