THE EFFECT OF ROLL AND PITCH ON ANTENNA RADIATION PATTERNS

The strength of an incoming signal to a shipboard communications station is measured. The variations in this signal are analyzed for various conditions of roll, pitch, and signal direction. Graphs and computer outputs are used to present the magnitude and radomness of these signal variations. A smooth surface approximation is used to simulate the problem, and this simulation is compared to observed data. (Author)
