Influence of the Correlation Coefficients in Determining Circuit Compatibility at HF

Abstract

The sensitivity of the circuit compatibility calculation at hf to input correlation coefficients is examined. The results show that the values of the correlation coefficients used have significant effect. But the change in circuit compatibility during the daytime was primarily due to the change in the correlation coefficient between the signal-to-noise ratio (S-N) and the interference-to-noise ratio (I-N) rather than the correlation between the interfering and desired path MUFs.
