HARPX: A Program to Extend HARPO or HARPA Ray Paths in Horizontally Uniform Media. Data Tape Documentation.

摘要

The report is documentation for a FORTRAN computer program HARPX that can extend ray paths in horizontally uniform media if the ray paths have been calculated by either ray tracing program HARPO or HARPA. The HARPX program extends HARPO or HARPA ray path calculations that have been made for two or three ray loops (hops) in a horizontally uniform medium to more loops and correspondingly longer ranges. The input is a HARPO or HARPA rayset file, and the output is another rayset file. The HARPX program extends the calculations in range by adding complete ray cycles to both odd and even ray loops.
