ESA workshop on radiowave propagation, Noordwijk, the Netherlands
30 November 2011 - 30 November 2011
Netherlands
A European Space Agency workshop on radiowave propagation will take place from 30 November to 2 December 2011 in Noordwijk, the Netherlands.
Radio propagation is the study of the behaviour of radio waves when they are transmitted from one point to another on the Earth or into various parts of the atmosphere. Propagation is affected by the changes of water vapour in the troposphere and ionisation in the upper atmosphere. Understanding the effects of varying conditions has many practical applications, from choosing frequencies for international shortwave broadcasters, to designing reliable mobile telephone systems, managing radio navigation and operating of radar systems.
The workshop will offer a forum for recent research and development on atmospheric radio channel modelling for mobile and fixed terminal satellite communication systems, satellite navigation systems, data downlink for Earth observation and space exploration systems, and radio science experiments.For further information, please visit: http://www.congrex.nl/11c23b/(opens in new window)
