A Comparison of Rough Surface Parabolic Equation Models

Abstract

Several parabolic equation models currently exist that model radiowave propagation over the ocean. Few of these models can accurately account for rough surface effects over an ocean environment. Several techniques to account for these effects, implemented within the split-step parabolic equation (PE) algorithm, are investigated.
