Abundant evidence for the occurrence of modulated envelope plasma wave packets is provided by recent satellite missions. These excitations are characterized by a slowly varying localized envelope structure, embedding the fast carrier wave, which appears to be the result of strong modulation of the wave amplitude. This modulation may be due to parametric interactions between different modes or, ...

Global observations of ocean swell propagation is presented and analyzed, using on four years of satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar data. Tracking swells along their propagation paths yields an estimation of the dissipation of their energy. Swells can be very persistent with energy e-folding scales exceeding 30,000 km. For increasing swell steepness, this scale shrinks down to 2700 km, revealin...

Radio communications often take place in confined environments like city areas. The propagation channel presents shadowing and multipath phenomena due to interactions between radio wave and environment. In this work, a general hybrid channel model concept is proposed to associate the advantages of existing deterministic and statistical models. One of the model applications is introduced using a...

The attenuation of VLF signals from lightning and ground-based VLF transmitters during transionospheric propagation has been the subject of recent interest, as discrepancies have been found between satellite data and model calculations. Previous modeling efforts, however, have not considered the self-absorption effect due to nonlinear heating and ionization in the lower ionosphere. A self-consi...

in this paper, on the basis of a new strain gradient elasticity theory, wave propagation in rectangular nanoplates by considering in-plane magnetic field is studied. this strain gradient theory has two gradient parameters and has the ability to compare with the nonlocal elasticity theory. from the best knowledge of author, it is the first time that this theory is used for investigating wave pro...

nowadays, with the advent of new satellite services, the need for resource management in the emerging fifth generation satellite systems (5g-satellite) is inevitable. thus, to solve this problem, the bandwidth manager for resource reservation in satellite link is mandatory. on the other hand, due to limited resources, their resource management­ is essential. in order to resource management in 5...

the problem of propagation of plane wave including body and surface waves propagating in a transversely isotropic half-space with a depth-wise axis of material symmetry is investigated in details. using the advantage of representation of displacement fields in terms of two complete scalar potential functions, the coupled equations of motion are uncoupled and reduced to two independent equations...

[1] The first documented, empirical comparisons are provided of four methods to retrieve total electron content (TEC) that use broadband, impulsive events detected by satellite in the lower very high frequency range (20–150 MHz). The four TEC retrieval methods are the quasi‐longitudinal approximation (i.e., Taylor expansion) of the Appleton‐Hartree (A‐H) dispersion relation to the first and sec...

The present investigation deals with the propagation of waves in the layer of an anisotropic fibre reinforced thermoelastic solid. Secular equations for symmetric and skew-symmetric modes of wave propagation in completely separate terms are derived. The amplitude of displacements and temperature distribution were also obtained. Finally, the numerical solution was carried out for Cobalt material...
