Abstract:

We consider here the inverse problem in refraction for the case of a receiver or a source immersion into the atmosphere. The problem reduces to solution of Volterra integral equation of the 2nd kind. By numerical simulations made using radiosonde data, the dependence of the solution precision on refraction measurements errors and on the observation elevation angle has been investigated.
