PROCEEDINGS OF THE TROPOSPHERIC REFRACTION EFFECTS MEETING (NO.3). VOLUME 1. RESULTS AND STATUS OF TROPOSPHERIC-EFFECTS MEASUREMENT PROGRAM

Abstract

This publication covers the presentations made at the Third Tropospheric Refraction Effects Meeting, sponsored by the Electronic Systems Division of The Air Force Systems Command. The proceedings are being published in two volumes for ease in handling; the papers covering the work on tropospheric refraction sponsored by the Electronic Systems Division in support of metric instrumentation on the national missile ranges, are contained in Volume 1. While these papers are complete in themselves, many of the specific details on the work covered in the proceeding of the second Refraction meeting (ESD-TDR-64103) have not been repeated. The first volume also contains papers on the Findings and Recommendations of the National Academy of Science 'Panel on Tracking Data Analysis' in the Area of Tropospheric Propagation and Refraction, Refractometer and Humidiometer Development of the Naval Research Laboratory, Spaced Refractometer Program of Eastern Test Range, and Canadian Tropospheric Measurement Activities. Presentations on certain refraction activities at the Pacific Missile Range, the National Bureau of Standards, Ft. Huachuca, Ballistic Research Laboratory, M.I.T. Round Hill, Cold Lake Canada, on new measurement techniques, and on Tropospheric and Ionospheric Effects on Interferometer Systems have been included in Volume II. (Author)
