Voice of America HF Curtain Array Interference Study.

Abstract

This report describes the results of a computer modeling investigation in which the interference to VHF and UHF communications/navigation equipments from a Voice of America HF relay station was determined. The radiating portions of the station were modeled using the Numerical Electromagnetic Code (NEC). Worst case interference models predict, based on the limited data available, that the relay station and the nearby airport-based equipments are not compatible. Recommendations for improving the quality and quantity of input data are made. It is anticipated that this would reduce the predicted interference margins to acceptable levels. (Author)
