Selective Fading of Microwaves

Abstract

The results of an extended survey of microwave propagation over two line-of-sight paths in New Jersey are described. Angle-of-arrival measurements at 1.25-cm wavelength and selective fading observations in a 450-mc frequency band centered at 3950-mc show that the severe fading can be explained in terms of multiple-path transmission. A computer of the analogue type was built to simulate the more complicated selective fading patterns.
