In many types of media, electromagnetic waves may be decomposed into two orthogonal components that encounter different propagation effects.

However, sound radiated from an infinite plane source is not attenuated due to geometric spreading, but is affected by other sound propagation effects.

Unlike the differential reflectivity, correlation coefficient and linear depolarization ratio, which are all dependent on reflected power, the specific differential phase is a "propagation effect."

In 1997, he was named an IEEE Fellow "for contributions and leadership in measuring and characterizing millimeter radar reflectivity and propagation effects".

As well such mapping will support the systematic and well determined consideration of multipath propagation effects.

However their short term stability is degraded by propagation effects such as multipath, atmospheric conditions and other impairments.

They make use of the earth's ionosphere, and can skip from one part of the globe to another quite easily thanks to a propagation effect known as sky wave.

These large, and very large, N-slit interferometers are also being used to study various propagation effects including microscopic disturbances on propagating interferometric signals.

That could either have been the result of direct hits with chemical-energy warheads, or secondary propagation effects when the engine blew.

MTT-S members apply physical and mathematical principles to design, analyze and build structures with dimensions representing a significant fraction of a wavelength or when propagation effects need to be considered.
