Radiowave Propagation in Troposphere

Propagation Engineering in Wireless Communications

Abstract

Most of the radio transmissions are carried out in the lower layers of the Earth atmosphere and in fact in the troposphere. Some of the radio systems in point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and point- to- area types include line of sight radio links in UHF, SHF, and EHF bands, mobile radio networks in VHF and UHF bands, and TV and FM audio broadcasting. Due to the vast usage of these communication systems, the study of troposphere layer and its impacts on wave propagation is extremely important to radio experts and scientists.
