Analysis of communications reliability in a multi-node virtual HF network
Abstract
This paper presents an approach to determining the reliability of communications over a required area of coverage for a four node virtual HF network that interconnects a terrestrial based user with a mobile platform. It then offers a unique metric, the grade of service (GOS), for determining the capability (probability of reliability) of communicating between the network and the mobile platform. The paper presents the statistical analytical approach used to determine the reliability of communications and shows how the GOS can be determined from this reliability. This GOS is presented as a contour map over a given area of interest. This paper also investigates some of the idiosyncrasies associated with the Advanced Stand Alone Prediction System (ASAPS) program for the determination of HF propagation.
