Abstract

Tropospheric ducting can cause interference to a wireless telecommunications network from a remote source that would not normally cause such interference to the network. Interference from tropospheric ducting can be determined by analyzing tropospheric ducting factors which, individually or in combination, indicate interference from tropospheric ducting. Future tropospheric ducting interference events can be predicted using forecast data and data from past events.
