| Abstract
|
:
|
Karmaker (radiophysics and electronics, U. of Calcutta) presents an elementary and short account of representative aspects of microwave (3-300 GHz) propagation through the atmosphere, and of sensing the atmosphere by deploying microwaves. He limits the discussion to the unguided propagation of microwaves in the neutral atmosphere, particularly for the purpose of characterizing and modeling atmospheric constituents, or remote sensing. His topics are radio waves and the troposphere, propagation, reflection and interference, refraction and path delay, absorption, rain attenuation, and attenuation by hydrometeors other than rain.
