Probabilistic characteristics of detection of radio pulses during propagation along the ionospheric lines of satellite communications systems

Resumo

The radio-pulse distortion methods are discussed under the condition of propagation along ionospheric transmission lines. These methods rely on the stationary spherically symmetric inhomogeneous medium model, which is equivalent to linear filtration. The numerical estimates of radio-pulse distortions based on correlation analysis of distorted radio pulses and the probabilistic characteristics of detection of distorted radio pulses with respect to propagation in free space are determined.
