Abstract:The propagation characteristics of the radio wave were analyzed in a nonuniform atmosphere in which there exist an inverted layer with an even power profile of a height under a standard atmosphere and the lowest layer with a linear profile. If the modified index of refraction obtained by introduction of the earth-flattening approximation has a 2n power profile of the height, the solution of the wave equation cannot be given by a closed form function. Hence, the rigorous solution was obtained by a series repres… Show more

“…To evaluate the method of estimating this refractive index, the bilinear model and 2n power N profile model [10] are adopted as the atmospheric models. Numerical examples of the refractive index distribution to be derived from the altitude distribution of the received electric field with each model are presented, and are considered simultaneously.…”
