Abstract
ic profiles for use as input into tactical decision aids; provide a real-time assessment of the boundary layer and refractive layers overland; and compare high resolution numerical model data with radiosonde upper air profiles in the data sparse environment. Results validate AREPS as a Tactical Decision Aid and tool for network administrators and operators for RF signal propagation; determine a negligible statistical significance of refractivity condition impact even though in situ meteorological data captured nonstandard refractivity gradients; show that the atmosphere is not a significant contributor to anomalous signal propagation at the operating wavelength and transmission distances; and conclude that the radiation heating of the network equipment remains as the likely factor to impact the transmission signal and equipment.

    Active Feedforward Disturbance Control System 

    Agrawal, Brij N.; Sugathevan, Suranthiran (The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy, Washington, DC (US), 2011-09-13);
    Noise effects in a signal for driving a plant are reduced by generating a reference signal from the error signal. A signal generator generates a reference signal for input to a finite impulse response (FIR) filter. The ...
