Abstract

Abstract : A computer which obtains waveguide mode solutions for very low frequencies and low frequencies (VLF/LF) is described. The program allows for multiple homogeneous segments to be specified, allowing for consideration of variations in the earth-ionosphere waveguide. Path geometry and geophysical parameters can be computed by the program. Ionospheric disturbances due to man-made or naturally events can also be modeled using the program. Keywords include: Longwave propagation, Wavelength mode, and Propagation path.
