Geometrical optics. 330 $aElectromagnetic Scintillation describes the phase and amplitude fluctuations imposed on signals that travel through the atmosphere. The volumes that make up Electromagnetic Scintillation will provide a modern reference and comprehensive tutorial, treating both optical and microwave propagation and integrating measurements and predictions at each step of the development. This first volume deals with phase and angle-of-arrival measurement errors, accurately described by geometrical optics. It will be followed by a further volume examining weak scattering. In this book, measured properties of tropospheric and ionospheric irregularities are reviewed first. Electromagnetic fluctuations induced by these irregularities are then estimated for a wide range of applications. The book will be of interest to those working in the resolution of astronomical interferometers and large single-aperture telescopes, as well as synthetic aperture radars and laser pointing/tracking systems. It is also directly relevant to those working in laser metrology, GPS location accuracy, and terrestrial and satellite communications. 606 $aElectromagnetic waves$xTransmission 615 0$aElectromagnetic waves$xTransmission. 676 $a539.2 700 $aWheelon$b Albert D$g(Albert Dewell),$f1929-2013,$01709194 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809512703321 996 $aElectromagnetic scintillation$94098763 997 $aUNINA
