An improved split-stepwavelet transform method for anomalous radiowave propagation modeling

An Anomalous tropospheric propagation caused by ducting phenomenon is a major problem in wireless communication. Thus, it is important to study the behavior of radio wave propagation in tropospheric ducts. The Parabolic Wave Equation (PWE) method is considered most reliable to model anomalous radio...
