Media effects on systems in the high latitude region
Abstract
The effects of the transmission medium on radio systems in the high latitude regions are reviewed. First, some general properties of propagation media are discussed, followed by brief descriptions of the effects on radio waves of the Earth's surface, the troposphere and the ionosphere in high latitudes. General principles are illustrated by examples from observations and model calculations.
