RESEARCH-ENGINEERING AND SUPPORT FOR TROPICAL COMMUNICATIONS

Abstract

Communications research in a tropical environment is needed to develop improved equipment and techniques for use by military forces in Southeast Asia and other areas of similar environment. This report covers the following research effort in Thailand during 1 September 1964 through 31 March 1965: Test and evaluation of tactical communication techniques and devices was performed. RF noise measurement study was continued. A series of HF antenna orientation measurements were conducted. Faraday rotation experiments were continued using data from satellites Transit 4A and Beacon S66. Ionospheric data from a C-2 sounder in Bangkok, Thailand has continued to be compiled and published in report form. Xeledop antenna pattern measurements of selected field antennas were made over flat terrain and in selected forest areas in CONUS.
