Summary

This physics image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “3D Ionospheric Ray Example.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
Description
English: Radio signals are split into two components (the ordinary component in red and the extraordinary component in green) when they penetrate into the ionosphere. This example shows two signals transmitted at different elevation angles from the transmitter at the left. The receiver is denoted by the triangle at the base of the grid on the right approximately 16,000 km away. Ionospheric reflection, tilted refraction and ordinary ray ducting between layers is visible in this image. en:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Signal_splitting_and_traced-rays.gif Click here to display a movie showing the three-dimensionality of the example.
