Abstract

Expressions to model the sky wave propagation conditions that occur in a HF communication link are presented. The model is intended not only for narrowband applications but also for wideband systems such as those using spread spectrum techniques. A discussion of the background leading to the present development effort is followed by a description of the method used to derive the model transfer function. Analytic expressions for the impulse response and the scattering function are given, and the introduction of random processes into the model is described. Comparisons of scattering functions from the model and from measurements are shown for spread‐Fconditions ranging from mild to intense and for both an auroral path and a midlatitude path.
