The Multipath and Fading Profile of the High Latitude Meteor Burst Communication Channel.

Abstract
High latitude propagation phenomenon such as scatter from the aurora and sporadic-E propagation can alter the communication characteristics of the high latitude meteor communication channel. This report describes the results of several experiments conducted for the purpose of characterizing the fading and multipath profile of the high latitude meteor communication channel. The effect of high latitude propagation phenomena on the capacity and reliability of meteor burst communications is discussed. Keywords include: Auroral scatter, Meteor scatter high latitude effects, multipath measurements, meteor scatter communications, and VHF propagation.
