Abstract

The chapter explores the comparison of vertical refractive index profiles in the atmosphere over St. Petersburg and Moscow, highlighting the significance of atmospheric refraction in radio wave propagation. It delves into the methods used to approximate these profiles, including the standard radio atmosphere model and bi-exponential models. The results show variations in the refractive index profiles by season and time of day, with implications for radar system accuracy and reliability. The study also discusses the impact of these variations on the meteorological regime and the equivalent Earth's radius, providing a comprehensive analysis of the atmospheric conditions affecting radio wave transmission.
