Abstract
Mathematical relationships are derived for evaluating the effects of a dispersive medium, such as the ionosphere, on an FM Gaussian shape pulse. The distortion of the amplitude, pulse length, and modulation caused by the ionosphere is examined in terms of the integrated electron density along the transmission path and the system parameters of the transmitted signal.
