Complex Ray Configurations in an Ionosphere Composed of Spherical Shells,

Abstract

In the document some complex ray configurations are treated using a simple ionospheric model, namely, spheres concentric with a spherical earth. Other simplifying assumptions are also made. Methods for finding takeoff angle of ray and length of ray path are given. (Author)
