Use of Conformal Mapping to Calculate the Mean Level of the Electromagnetic Field Above the Sea Surface

Аннотация

A new method is proposed to calculate the mean level of an electromagnetic field propagating along sea paths, based on a numerical solution of the parabolic equation. A way of taking the influence of waviness of the sea surface on the mean level of the field strength of the radio field is proposed. This method is based on the method of conformal mapping of a curvilinear coordinate system above the uneven sea surface onto a Cartesian coordinate system above the sea surface. A comparison with computer simulations obtained using the Monte Carlo method is carried out.
