Abstract:

The Refractivity Structure Matching Algorithm RSMA is an automated aid for matching refractivity structure in adjacent profiles which result from common layers. The RMSA is specifically designed to prepare multiple refractivity profiles for entry into the Naval Ocean Systems Centers Radio Physical Optics RPO program. A full description of the RMSA, a test case demonstrating its capabilities, and a computer listing, are provided in this document.
