Trans-horizon propagation techniques for examining disturbances in stratified tropospheric layers

Abstract

Abstract. This paper discusses the merits of using measurement techniques, in trans-horizon propagation experiments, which obtain various types of information simultaneously -such as, information on angle of arrival, transmission delay, Doppler spectrum, etc. It points out examples where such techniques have been used to a limited degree. It emphasizes the importance of extending this type of approach in the application of trans-horizon measurements to the study of specific formations on layers: waves and instabilities.
