Phase variations at millimetric wavelengths on an Earth-space path through model atmospheres

Abstract :
Calculations have been made of the phase incoherence at wavelengths of 3·0 and 8·5 mm over spacings ranging between 1 and 50 m in the wavefront of a plane electromagnetic wave propagating through various idealised models of the troposphere derived from refractometer data.
