METEOROLOGICAL INFLUENCES ON LORAN-C PROPAGATION OVER SEA AND LAND IN MEDITERRANEAN SEA CHAIN

Zoran M. Markovic

Abstract: Loran-C phase variations of signal from the Master of the Mediterranean Sea chain at Sellia Marina were measured simultaneously at three receiving sites, located on sea, coast and land. The effect of terrain over which the signal is propagated is considered together with the influence of weather parameters on the phase variations at the transmitter, along the signal paths and at the receiving sites. Based on an analysis of these data, correlations among these variations are examined, and correction is introduced to the measured results, in order to improve precision of mutual and international comparisons via Loran-C.
