| Description | Two atmospheric probing experiments involving beyond-the-horizon propagation of microwave signals are reported. In the first experiment, Doppler-shift caused by the cross path wind is measured by a phase lock receiver with the common volume displaced in azimuth from the great circle. Variations in the measured Doppler shift values are explained in terms of variations in atmospheric structure. The second experiment makes use of the pseudorandom sounding signal used in a RAKE communication system. Both multipath delay and Doppler shift are provided by the receiver, permitting the cross section of the atmospheric layer structure to be deduced. |
