TL;DR: Tropospheric phase noise in the 9.6 GHz range and range-difference data was studied experimentally on a 65 km slanted overwater path, with baseline lengths of 10, 370, 400, and 749 m at the lower terminal.
Abstract: Tropospheric phase noise in the 9.6-GHz range and range-difference data was studied experimentally on a 65-km slanted overwater path, with baseline lengths of 10, 370, 400, and 749 m at the lower terminal. The noise data are interpreted in terms of their power spectra and rms values as a function of baseline length. Results of a cross-correlation analysis of the range variation data are consistent with a "frozen turbulence" model of the troposphere.
