Computer programs for u. h. f. co-channel interference prediction using a terrain data bank

摘要

A set of computer programs has been written to predict the interference caused by co-channel stations to the service of a television transmitter. These programs use geographical and transmitter information stored permanently on a magnetic drum. In this report an outline is given of the methods employed by the programs. Details are given of the required input and the form of output. This report is companion to a report on similar programs used for the prediction of service areas.
