Abstract :
Results of long term measurements of atmospheric refractivity profiles and microwave propagation are used for comparison with an improved analysis of propagation over irregular terrain using physical optics approximation of vector problem, which offers more reliable numerical simulations for low altitude propagation and diffraction field zone without any auxiliary procedures.
