ITU-R P.1240-2 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R P.1240-2 ITU-R methods of basic MUF, operational MUF and ray-path prediction* (Question ITU-R 212/3) (1997-2007-2015) Scope This Recommendation gives methods for the prediction of the maximum usable

9、frequencies for the ionospheric layers. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that long-term reference ionospheric data and propagation prediction methods are needed for HF radio-circuit design, service planning and frequency band selection; b) that maps of ionospheric characteristics

10、are given in Recommendation ITU-R P.1239, recommends 1 that for the prediction of basic and operational MUFs, use should be made of the formulations contained in Annex 1 (for definitions, see Recommendation ITU-R P.373); 2 that for the prediction of ray paths, use should be made of the formulations

11、contained in Annex 2. Annex 1 Prediction of basic and operational MUFs 1 Introduction Empirical formulae are presented for the evaluation of the monthly median basic MUF for the propagation path. This MUF is estimated as the greatest of the basic MUF values for the propagation modes appropriate to t

12、he path length being considered. The relationship between the operational MUF and basic MUF is given and a computer program is described leading to estimates of path basic MUF, operational MUF and optimum working frequency on a point-to-point propagation path of any length. * Computer programs assoc

13、iated with the prediction procedures and data described in this Recommendation are available from that part of the ITU-R website dealing with Radiocommunication Study Group 3. 2 Rec. ITU-R P.1240-2 2 Mode consideration The modes considered are: 1F2 0 to dmax Higher order F2 modes beyond dmax 1F1 2 0

14、00-3 400 km 1E 0-2 000 km 2E 2 000-4 000 km where the maximum ground range dmax (km) for a single hop F2 mode is given by: dmax 4780 (12 610 2 140 /x2 49 720/x4 + 688 900 / x6) (1 /B 0.303) with: B M(3000)F2 0.124 M(3000)F22 4 0.0215 0.005 sin 7.854x 1.9635 and x foF2/foE, or 2 whichever is the larg

15、er. Ionospheric characteristics for the mid-point of the great-circle path are used. 3 Prediction of F2-layer basic MUF 3.1 Ground distance D up to dmax The F2-layer basic MUF is given by: F2(D)MUF 1 CDC3000 B 1 foF2 fH2 1 Ddmax where: fH : appropriate gyrofrequency (see Recommendation ITU-R P.1239)

16、 and CD 0.74 0.591 Z 0.424 Z 2 0.090 Z 3 + 0.088 Z 4 + 0.181 Z 5 + 0.096 Z 6 with Z 1 2D /dmax C3000 : value of CD for D 3 000 km where D is the great-circle distance (km). The above formulae apply for the basic MUF for the x-wave at zero distance, for the o-wave at dmax and beyond and for some comp

17、osite waves at intermediate distances. The corresponding o-wave basic MUF is given for all distances by deleting the last term in fH from the first formula. 3.2 Ground distance D greater than dmax Values of F2(dmax)MUF are determined for two control-point locations at d0/2 from each terminal along t

18、he connecting great-circle path where d0 is the hop-length of the lowest order F2 mode. The path MUF is the lower of the two values. 4 Prediction of F1-layer basic MUF Ionospheric propagation via the F1-layer is important for transmission distances in the 2 000-3 400 km range at mid and high latitud

19、es during the summer months. For these transmission distances the F1-layer basic MUF is taken as the product of the mid-path value of foF1 (see Recommendation Rec. ITU-R P.1240-2 3 ITU-R P.1239) and the M factor MF1. This M factor was derived from ray-tracing calculations on electron density versus

20、height profiles obtained from representative noon ionograms recorded at mid and high latitudes. It is assumed that these factors are applicable for all solar zenith angles. The M factor can be determined from the following numerical expressions: MF1 J0 0.01 ( J0 J100) R12 where: J0 0.16 2.64 10 3 D

21、0.40 10 6 D2 J100 0.52 2.69 10 3 D 0.39 10 6 D2 and where D represents the great-circle distance (km) in the range of 2 000-3 400 km. 5 Prediction of E-layer basic MUF 5.1 Ground distance up to 2 000 km Ionospheric propagation via a single reflection from the E-layer is important over distances up t

22、o 2 000 km. The E-layer basic MUF of a particular mode may be estimated as the product of the mid-path value of foE (see Recommendation ITU-R P.1239) and the M factor ME. This M factor based on ray-path calculations for a parabolic model E-layer with hmE 110 km, ymE 20 km, when effects of the Earths

23、 magnetic field are neglected, is given by: ME 3.94 2.80 x 1.70 x2 0.60 x3 0.96 x 4 where: x D 1 1501150 and D represents the great-circle distance (km). 5.2 Ground distance between 2 000 and 4 000 km The 2E MUF, for ranges between 2 000 and 4 000 km, is taken as E(2000)MUF expressed in terms of the

24、 mid-path foE. 6 Prediction of the operational MUF For prediction purposes the operational MUF (see Recommendation ITU-R P.373) when determined by an F2-mode is expressed in terms of the basic MUF. Table 1 gives the ratio of the operational MUF to the basic MUF for different seasons, times of day an

25、d transmitter radiated power, and these ratios may be used where specific experience for the circuit being considered is not available. When the operational MUF is determined by an E or F1 mode it is taken equal to the corresponding basic MUF. 4 Rec. ITU-R P.1240-2 TABLE 1 Ratio of the median operat

27、P.373) is estimated in terms of the operational MUF using the conversion factor Fl set equal to 0.95 if the path basic MUF is determined by an E or F1 mode, and as given in Table 2 of Recommendation ITU-R P.1239 if the path basic MUF is determined by an F2 mode. 8 Prediction of the highest probable

28、frequency (HPF) The HPF (Recommendation ITU-R P.373) is estimated in terms of the operational MUF using the conversion factor Fl set equal to 1.05 if the path basic MUF is determined by an E or F1 mode, and as given in Table 3 of Recommendation ITU-R P.1239 if the path basic MUF is determined by an

29、F2 mode. 9 Computer program The procedures described in this Annex are implemented in the computer program MUFFY, which predicts basic MUF, operational MUF and optimum working frequency as a function of time of day, for given propagation path, month and sunspot number.
