Electromagnetic 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.
