The Combined US/NATO Digital Troposcatter Test Programme over Two ACE High Links.

Abstract

The combined US/NATO Digital Troposcatter Test Programme was carried out by the Defense Communications Engineering Center (for the US) and the SHAPE Technical Centre (for NATO) between January and August 1977 over two ACE High links in Central Europe which were made available to NATO. The purpose of the tests was to obtain performance data on a multichannel digital troposcatter system using operational communications links. This report contains a description of the equipment and procedures employed, a summary of the results, and the conclusions drawn from the tests. The data obtained has been incorporated in an extensive data base held at both DCEC and STC to provide the capability for future analyses. (Author)
