STUDY OF METEOROLOGICAL SURVEILLANCE OBSERVING SYSTEM

Abstract

Results are given of the calculations of A, the atmospheric attenuation due to molecular oxygen, as a function of the temperature and air densities which are found in the ARDC standard atmosphere for the following heights: 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 15 km. These results are given graphically for each height where A is plotted in decibels per kilometer versus frequency in kilomegacycles. (Author)
