The transmission of messages is a complex process, which is largely determined by the properties of the radio channel used. Decameter radio channels are the most difficult for organizing communication, since the ionospheric propagation of radio waves is associated with their significant attenuation, due to the significant length of the paths, as well as the presence of Rayleigh fading in the channel. However, the possibility of transmitting information over long distances without serious resource costs stimulates further research to improve the reliability of decameter radio communication. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of increasing the noise immunity of frequency-shift keying transmissions of decameter radio channels in conditions of unintentional interference due to the use of broadband signals. An analytical expression of the dependence of the probability of a bit error on the level of the ratio of the peak signal power to the peak interference power is considered; a graph of this dependence is presented. It is shown that the plot is consistent with the overall noise immunity estimate for Rayleigh fading channels using double FSK signals. The rationality of methods for obtaining the required reception quality in decameter radio channels is analyzed. It is shown that the most rational direction for increasing the noise immunity of FM-2 transmissions in decameter radio channels with Rayleigh fading in conditions of unintended interference is the use of broadband signals. In this case, for expansion, it is advisable to choose a value kf = 7, which makes it possible to increase the noise immunity by 9 dB. The conclusions are illustrated by graphs.

Weather radar is used by forecasters for identifying storms and estimating its corresponding precipitation. Anomalous propagation of the radar beam may lead to misinterpretation of the weather events and associated errors in precipitation estimates. As the weather radar transmits electromagnetic waves, it is affected by the refractive index of the atmosphere which depends on the temperature, pressure and water vapor content. It is important to understand the refractive index of the atmosphere and how it affects the beam propagation of the radar to interpret the echoes better. Meteorological conditions causing anomalous propagation is well described in literature by Battan (1973), Doviak and Zrnik (2006) and Rinehart (2001). The vertical refractivity gradient (VRG) affects the propagation of radio waves in the atmosphere (Gossard, 1977). These anomalous propagation cause clutter to be displayed in the radar images. The intensity of the clutter was differentiated into various groups by the amount of clutter present in the radar image. Refractivity parameters at various heights and the height of the temperature inversion layer were calculated using radiosonde observational data at the Visakhapatnam (VSK) station. The observed values from the radiosonde data were compared with the intensity groups and it was found that three parameters were influential in determining the intensity of the clutter which is the presence of the temperature inversion layer above the radar, the VRG of the temperature inversion layer above the radar and the VRG from the radar to a height of 1 km from sea level.

The analysis of noise immunity of MISO systems withKantennas at the base station (BS) and Space-Time Codes (STC) is performed. This system, as compared to STC systems, selects just one of K antennas for signal transmission the one whose radiation during radio waves broadcasting along the route BSuser station has the least attenuation. Formulas allowing to calculate error probabilities at the reception of multiposition signals with QAM and the various number of transmitting antennas at BSs both in STC systems and in the new MISO system are obtained. Выполнен анализ помехоустойчивости систем MISO с K антеннами на базовой станции (БС) и пространственно-временными кодами (ПВК). Дано описание и выполнен анализ помехоустойчивости новой, более простой в реализации, системы MISO, также имеющей K антенн на БС. В ней, в отличие от систем с ПВК, для передачи сигналов выбирается лишь одна из K антенн, излучение которой при распространении радиоволн на трассе от БС к абонентской станции (АС) ослабляется в наименьшей степени. Получены формулы, позволяющие вычислить вероятности ошибки при приеме многопозиционных сигналов с квадратурно-амплитудной модуляцией при разном числе передающих антенн на БС как в системах с ПВК, так и в новой системе MISO. Показано, что при одном и том же количестве передающих антенн на БС новая система MISO по сравнению с системой с ПВК обеспечивает энергетический выигрыш, составляющий 2 дБ. С увеличением количества передающих антенн K этот выигрыш увеличивается.
