Large-scale Irregularities In The Equatorial Ionosphere
(University of Nairobi, 1975-04)
Variations in the Faraday fading period of the 40 MHz signal from satellite BE-B have been used to study large-scale irregularities in the equatorial ionosphere. It is found that the irregularities have sizes ranging from ...
Scintillation fading of signals in the SHF band
(University of Nairobi, 1971)
IN September 1970, the Mount Longonot satellite telecommunication station, situated in the Rift Valley thirty miles north-west of Nairobi, was put into commercial operation by the East African External Telecommunication ...
Fresnel-type Fading On Satellite Records At Low Latitudes
(University of Nairobi, 1975-08)
Fresnel-type fading patterns have been observed on recordings of geostationary and travelling satellites made at three low-latitude stations in East Africa. The occurrence is greatest in the time periods 05–08 and 18–22 ...
The Seasonal Occurrence Of Blanketing Sporadic-e Near The Geographic Equator
(University of Nairobi, 1972-06)
It is shown that the latitude at which the occurrence of blanketing sporadic-E (View the MathML source) changes over from a June maximum to a December maximum is south of the geographic equator in the African and Far Eastern ...
Some properties of ionospheric irregularities as deduced from recordings of the San Marco II and BE-B satellites
(University of Nairobi, 1970-07)
Recordings of scintillations on signals received at Nairobi from satellites San Marco II and BE-B have been analysed by correlation and dispersion methods, the correlation method equations being derived in a simpler way. ...
