  • Abstract
    An experiment to study tropospheric structure through the use of high resolution antennas having a very small common volume is described. Measurements at 15.7 GHz over a 500 km path between Boston and Ottawa have been conducted, and signals as large as 25 dB above the receiver noise level have been obtained.
