Creation of Radio Engineering Systems Using Tropospheric Technologies and Electronic Communication Means

Work number - P 15 FILED

Presented National Technical University of Ukraine "Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute"

For the first time on the Eurasian continent, mobile and portable radio engineering systems have been developed using tropospheric technologies and electronic communication means.

For the first time in global practice, a theory of partially filled waveguides has been developed, where the dielectric does not touch the walls of the waveguide and has an arbitrary position in the transverse cross-section. The eigenvector functions for such waveguides have been explicitly determined. A theory for constructing devices using such dielectrically partially filled waveguides was developed, including designs with nonlinear elements using the apparatus of special functions from mathematical physics. This work further advanced, at the global level, the field of scientific and technical research in “metamaterials and their applications.” These scientific and technical results relate to the construction of receiver-transmitter chains for microwave tropospheric electronic communication means.

Based on the aggregate of tactical and technical characteristics, and in the absence of a military satellite communication system in Ukraine, there is no viable alternative to tropospheric communication.

For the first time in Ukraine, a radionavigation field with defined parameters was created based on the use of tropospheric irregularities.

Tropospheric electronic communication systems are in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the amount of several dozen units. The cost of a Ukrainian serial prototype is 1.6 times less than that of an equivalent U.S.-made system with the same characteristics.
