Abstract

Statistical properties of the phase and group paths of signals reflected from the plane layered medium with anisotropic random inhomogeneities of dielectric permittivity are considered. Analytical expressions for the dispersions and spatial autocorrelation functions of these signal characteristics are obtained for the two models of regular ionospheric layers: linear and parabolic. The results are numerically analyzed for different conditions of ionospheric sounding.
