| Abstract On the basis of graphical ray tracing along with the link geometry and configuration, this paper develops a simplified graphical - numerical technique to estimate the multipathing parameters associated with the multiple paths resulting from a given vertical refractivity profile of a two-layer troposphere. The proposed model is verified by applying it to analyze the performance of different microwave line of sight (MLOS) links with different parameters and configurations. The multiple-path rays are displayed over each MLOS link with a given geometry and configuration. The numerical results are discussed and compared with the corresponding published data using different techniques. The results show clearly the dependence of multipath parameters on refractive index gradient, link geometry and link configuration. | ||
