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 tropical environments. This report describes Stanford Research Institute's work on SEACORE (an acronym for Southeast Asia Communication Research) during the period 1 October 1966 through 31 March 1967. Among the topics under study were: (1) Airborne pattern measurements of antennas in vegetation, (2) Measurement of electrical properties of vegetation and ground, (3) Modeling of propagation through a scattering medium, (4) Ionospheric propagation and frequency prediction, and (5) Atmospheric radio noise.
