Record 2 2010-03-12

English

Subject field(s)
  • Radio Waves
CONT

Since the ionosphere lying over the great circle determines the mode of propagation, a method for determining the MUF over that path suggests itself : we must first determine the critical frequency at the midpoint of the path at a particular layer height. Knowing the path length will enable us to determine what the MUF factor will be.
