Abstract :
A propagation model for HF radiowave systems is presented. The model is based on an efficient 2D ray tracing algorithm and an ionosphere that is derived from well known models such as IRI and FAIM. Calculations of Doppler shift, Doppler spread and signal loss are included to allow for a wide variety of uses. Some sample applications are included
