Abstract:The wave-hop method of calculating propagation at LF and VLF does not use the stationary-phase relation to determine reflection height and is therefore liable to error, particularly at short distances. Stationary phase is introduced into the wave-hop calculations and examples are given of the results. The errors are frequently very small but this is not always the case.
