Accuracy Analysis of the HF Transmitter Location Procedure by the Single Station Location (SSL) Method
Viktor Kogan, Nikolai Loginov, Alexander P. Pavliouk, Vladimir Zagoskin · 2000
The problems arising with the application of the Single Station Location (SSL) method for determination of an HF transmitter geographical position are considered. Issues on choosing different ionospheric propagation prediction models for SSL software applications are discussed. The estimations of location errors are given in functions of inaccuracies in ionospheric parameter determination along a propagation path. Despite of a number of not fully solved problems, it is possible to recommend active introduction of the SSL method in newly installed and modernized HF direction-finders (DFs) so the further improvements were reduced only to updating of a DF software.
